Yes, it is not worth the worry to not issue receipts. I don't want to feel like I would be always looking for that audit letter from CRA. I also never give out my sin. Like Momof4 said, if CRA requests it (which they should it have anyway) via letter request, then I will give it.
When I had my children in home care my caregiver didn't give out her sin number. I was able to claim the amount regardless. Where the parents will get stuck is if they file with H and R block or an accountant. They may refuse to add in the amount unless they have the proper backing for it.
Just go online and register for a business licence.... It costs $60 for 5 years and you can put your business number in your receipts ...... It takes minutes!
thats what I did :)
no sin # here :) Meaning I don't give it out
mine expired I didn't know I could go online and now do it. whew, saves me from going downtown.
