Josh Donaldson, Russell Martin and Jose Bautista are at odds with the Canadian Revenue Agency.
Three ex-Blue Jays stars are in a legal battle with the Canada Revenue Agency over contributions to their pension plans while they played in Toronto, according to a report.
The CRA reportedly disallowed $16 million in deductions from Bautista’s income through contributions the seven-time All-Star made from 2014-17 — claiming his RCA is “not a ‘pension plan’ or ‘retirement compensation arrangement’” that adheres to the country’s Income Tax Act.However, Bautista’s attorneys have argued his contributions should be considered as part of a pension plan as they were made to “assist with his transition into retirement.
According to the National Post, the CRA is arguing for the deductions to be calculated prior to determining the players’ time split between the US and Canada.The players have argued that the deductions should be calculated afterward.
