(2) A payment or part of a payment applied by the Minister in accordance with a tax collection agreement towards the tax payable by an individual for a taxation year under this Act or the old Act (a) relieves the individual of liability to pay that tax to the extent of the payment or the part of the payment so applied, and (b) is deemed to have been applied in accordance with a direction made by the individual. 2000 cA‑35.03 s63 Remissions not recoverable 64 If a tax collection agreement is in effect and an amount is remitted to the Minister under subsection 153(1) of the federal Act as it applies for the purposes of this Act on account of the tax of an individual who is resident on the last day of the taxation year in another agreeing province or territory, (a) no action lies for recovery of that amount by that individual, and (b) the amount may not be applied in discharge of any liability of that individual under this Act. 2000 cA‑35.03 s64 Tax paid to other province or territory 65 (1) If a tax collection agreement is in effect, an individual resident in Alberta on the last day of the taxation year is not required to remit any amount on account of tax payable under this Act for the taxation year to the extent of the amount deducted or withheld on account of the individual’s tax for that year under the income tax statute of another agreeing province or territory. (2) When the total amount deducted or withheld on account of tax payable under this Act and under the income tax statute of another agreeing province or territory by an individual resident in Alberta on the last day of the taxation year to whom subsection (1) applies exceeds the tax payable by the individual under this Act for that year, section 54 applies in respect of that individual as though the excess were an overpayment under this Act. 2000 cA‑35.03 s65 Non‑agreeing provinces or territories 66 (1) In this section, (a) “adjusting payment” means a payment, calculated in accordance with this section, made by or on the direction of the Government of Alberta to a non‑agreeing province or territory; (b) “amount deducted or withheld” does not include any refund made in respect of that amount; (c) “non‑agreeing province or territory” means a province or territory that is not an agreeing province or territory. (2) If, in respect of a taxation year, a non‑agreeing province or territory is authorized to make a payment to the Government of Alberta that, in the opinion of the Provincial Minister, corresponds to an adjusting payment, the Lieutenant Governor in Council may authorize the Provincial Minister to make an adjusting payment to that non‑agreeing province or territory and enter into any agreement that may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this section. (3) If a tax collection agreement is entered into, the adjusting payment that may be made pursuant to subsection (2) may be made by the Government of Canada when it has agreed to act on the direction of the Government of Alberta as communicated by the Provincial Minister to the Minister. (4) Where an adjusting payment is to be made and there has been an amount deducted or withheld under subsection 153(1) of the federal Act as it applies for the purposes of this Act on account of the tax for a taxation year of an individual who is liable to pay tax under the federal Act in respect of that year and who is resident on the last day of that taxation year in the non‑agreeing province or territory, (a) no action lies for the recovery of that amount by that individual, and (b) the amount may not be applied in discharge of any liability of that individual under this Act. (5) If an adjusting payment to a non‑agreeing province or territory is to be made under this section for a taxation year, an individual resident in Alberta on the last day of the taxation year is not required to remit any amount on account of tax payable by the individual under this Act for the taxation year to the extent of the amount deducted or withheld on account of the individual’s income tax for that year under the law of that non‑agreeing province or territory. (6) If an adjusting payment to a non‑agreeing province or territory is to be made under this section for a taxation year and the total amount deducted or withheld on account of tax payable under this Act and on account of the income tax payable under the law of the non‑agreeing province or territory by an individual resident in Alberta on the last day of the taxation year to whom subsection (5) applies exceeds the tax payable by the individual under this Act for that year, section 54 of this Act applies in respect of that individual as though the excess were an overpayment under this Act. (7) If a tax collection agreement is entered into and the Government of Canada has agreed in respect of a taxation year to carry out the direction of the Government of Alberta and to make an adjusting payment on behalf of the Government of Alberta, the adjusting payment must be made out of any money that has been collected on account of tax under this Act for any taxation year.

(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), when a judgment of a superior court of an agreeing province or territory is sought to be registered under the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act , the judgment must be registered even if it is established that one or more of the provisions of section 2(6) of that Act apply.

(2) In this Part, “this Act” includes the old Act. 2007 c26 s16 General anti‑avoidance rule 85.1 (0.1) This section contains the general anti-avoidance rule, which (a) applies to deny the tax benefit of avoidance transactions that result directly or indirectly either in a misuse of provisions of the Act or any of the Acts or regulations listed in subsection (3.1)(a)(i) to (v) or an abuse having regard to those provisions read as a whole, while not preventing taxpayers from obtaining tax benefits contemplated by the Legislature, and (b) strikes a balance between (i) the Government of Alberta’s responsibility to protect the tax base and the fairness of the tax system, and (ii) taxpayers’ need for certainty in planning their affairs. (1) In this section and section 51(1.1), (a) “tax benefit” means (i) a reduction, avoidance or deferral of tax or other amount payable under this Act or an Alberta regulation or an increase in a refund of tax or other amount under this Act or an Alberta regulation, and includes a reduction, avoidance or deferral of tax or other amount that would be payable under this Act or an Alberta regulation but for a tax treaty, (ii) an increase in a refund of tax or other amount under this Act or an Alberta regulation as a result of a tax treaty, or (iii) a reduction, increase or preservation of an amount that could at a subsequent time (A) be relevant for the purpose of computing an amount referred to in subclause (i) or (ii), and (B) result in any of the effects described in subclause (i) or (ii); (b) “tax consequences”, to an individual, means (i) the amount of income, taxable income or taxable income earned in Canada of the individual under this Act or an Alberta regulation, (ii) the tax or other amount payable by, or refundable to, the individual under this Act or an Alberta regulation, or (iii) any other amount that is, or could at a subsequent time be, relevant for the purpose of computing an amount referred to in subclause (i) or (ii); (c) “transaction” includes an arrangement or event. (2) Where a transaction is an avoidance transaction, the tax consequences to an individual shall be determined as is reasonable in the circumstances in order to deny a tax benefit that, but for this section, would result, directly or indirectly, from that transaction or from a series of transactions that includes that transaction. (3) Unless it may reasonably be considered that it is not one of the main purposes for undertaking or arranging a transaction to (a) obtain a tax benefit, (b) reduce, avoid or defer tax, or another amount payable as or in respect of tax, under any other Alberta, federal or provincial Act or regulation, or (c) increase a refund of tax, or of another amount in respect of tax, under any other Alberta, federal or provincial Act or regulation, the transaction is an avoidance transaction if the transaction (d) but for this section, would result, directly or indirectly, in a tax benefit, or (e) is part of a series of transactions, which series, but for this section, would result, directly or indirectly, in a tax benefit. (3.1) Subsection (2) applies to a transaction only if it may reasonably be considered that the transaction (a) would, if this Act were read without reference to this section, result, directly or indirectly, in a misuse of the provisions of any one or more of (i) this Act or the regulations, (i.1) the federal Act as it applies for the purposes of this Act, (ii) the federal regulation as it applies for the purposes of this Act, (iii) the Income Tax Application Rules (Canada) as they apply for the purposes of this Act, (iv) a tax treaty, or (v) any other enactment that is relevant in computing tax or any other amount payable by or refundable to an individual under this Act or in determining any amount that is relevant for the purposes of that computation, or (b) would result directly or indirectly in any abuse having regard to the provisions referred to in clause (a), other than this section, read as a whole. (3.2) If an avoidance transaction, or a series of transactions that includes the avoidance transaction, is significantly lacking in economic substance, this is an important consideration that tends to indicate that the transaction results in a misuse under subsection (3.1)(a) or an abuse under subsection (3.1)(b). (3.3) Factors that establish that a transaction or series of transactions is significantly lacking in economic substance may include, but are not limited to, any of the following: (a) all or substantially all of the opportunity for gain or profit and risk of loss of the taxpayer, taken together with those of all non‑arm’s length taxpayers, other than those non‑arm’s length taxpayers who can reasonably be considered, having regard to the circumstances viewed as a whole, to have economic interests that are largely adverse from those of the taxpayers, remains unchanged, including because of (i) a circular flow of funds, (ii) offsetting financial positions, (iii) the timing between steps in a series, or (iv) the use of an accommodation party; (b) it is reasonable to conclude that, at the time the transaction or series of transactions was entered into, the expected value of the tax benefit exceeded the expected non-tax economic return, which excludes both the tax benefit and any tax advantages connected to another jurisdiction; (c) it is reasonable to conclude that the entire, or almost entire, purpose for undertaking or arranging the transaction or series of transactions was to obtain the tax benefit. (4) Without limiting subsection (2), (a) any deduction, exemption or exclusion made in computing income, taxable income, taxable income earned in Canada, or tax payable or any part of it may be allowed or disallowed in whole or in part, (b) any deduction, exemption or exclusion referred to in clause (a) or any income, loss or other amount, or part of it, may be allocated to any individual, (c) the nature of any payment or other amount may be recharacterized, (d) the tax effects that would otherwise result from the application of other provisions of this Act or the regulations may be ignored, and (e) the amount of any refundable tax credits may be disallowed in whole or in part in determining the tax consequences to an individual in a manner that is reasonable in the circumstances in order to deny a tax benefit that would, but for this section, result, directly or indirectly, from an avoidance transaction. (5) Where with respect to a transaction (a) a notice of assessment, reassessment or additional assessment involving the application of subsection (2) with respect to the transaction has been sent to an individual, or (b) a notice of determination pursuant to section 51(1.1) has been sent to an individual with respect to the transaction, any individual, other than an individual referred to in clause (a) or (b), is entitled, within 180 days after the day of mailing of the notice, to request in writing that the Provincial Minister make an assessment, reassessment or additional assessment applying subsection (2) or make a determination applying section 51(1.1) with respect to that transaction. (6) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, the tax consequences to any individual, following the application of this section, shall be determined only through a notice of assessment, reassessment, additional assessment or determination pursuant to section 51 involving the application of this section. (7) On receipt of a request by an individual under subsection (5), the Provincial Minister shall, with all due dispatch, consider the request, and notwithstanding subsection 152(4) of the federal Act as it applies for purposes of this Act, assess, reassess or make an additional assessment or determination pursuant to section 51(1.1) with respect to that individual, except that an assessment, reassessment, additional assessment or determination may be made under this subsection only to the extent that it may reasonably be regarded as relating to the transaction referred to in subsection (5). 2007 c26 s16;2015 c21 Sched. 2 s2;2017 c15 s2;2025 c20 s5 Part 5 Transitional Provisions, Consequential Amendments and Coming into Force Transitional Provisions 86 Repealed 2013 c11 s3.
