Lump-Sum CRA Payoff
Quick Answer

CRA tax arrears financing uses home equity to pay off outstanding personal or business tax debt in a single lump sum, before the Canada Revenue Agency escalates to account freezes, wage garnishment, or a property lien. Because the loan is secured by equity, approval does not depend on being current with the CRA at the time of application.

  • Stops CRA collection action before it escalates
  • One lump-sum payment clears the debt in full
  • Approval is equity-based, not contingent on CRA standing
  • Works for personal and business tax arrears (HST, income tax, source deductions)
Act Before Collection Escalates

The CRA Moves Faster Than Most Creditors

Unlike most creditors, the CRA can freeze bank accounts and register liens without a court order. Early action matters.

Stop a Lien Before Registration

Paying arrears before a lien is registered against your property avoids a public claim that complicates future financing.

Protect Frozen Accounts

Clearing the balance can resolve account freezes and garnishment orders, restoring normal financial operation.

Personal & Business Debt

Income tax, HST arrears, and source deduction shortfalls can all be consolidated into a single payoff.

FAQ

CRA Debt Payoff FAQ

Direct answers about using home equity to resolve government debt.

Yes — the CRA has legal authority to issue a Requirement to Pay directly to your bank or employer without going through the court process most other creditors require, which is why arrears are worth addressing early.
A registered lien becomes a claim on title that must be resolved before a sale or most refinances can close, so clearing it proactively keeps your options open.
No. Approval is based on your property's equity, not your standing with the CRA or your credit score.
Both. We regularly arrange financing for incorporated business owners clearing HST or source deduction arrears, secured against personal or business-owned property.
Yes — the same equity-based payoff approach applies to income tax, HST, and payroll source deduction arrears; the CRA doesn't distinguish between them when it comes to collection powers, and neither do we when it comes to resolving them.
