expert opinion needed on T4 and tax system.

[rckc02]

Can a employer get your salary or pay for an entire year changed after u get your T4 for that year..? for example a per gets $12 per hour

(40 hours a week) and he works a entire year and then he gets his t4 for 2011. Now according to his salary the yearly earning on his T4

shows 24,000. Now for some reason the employer wants to show his employees earning 28000 for 2011.
Can he get the T4 changed..? is this possible..?

That's illegal. Doing this would be income tax fraud.

Agree, it sounds like fraud.

Certainly it's possible to correct errors on T4s, but not only would you need evidence of an error, but you and your employer would have to pay the additional taxes plus penalties (because it would be late).

But trying to cook the books just for immigration? That's a whole world of trouble you don't want. No legit employer would even consider it.
