Ask HN: Help I owe over 100k in taxes after signing up for Stripe Atlas
I signed up for Stripe Atlast in 2017, and pretty much just forgot about it. In Canada, if your company don't make any money, you don't file anything, and the company dissolves. So imagine my surprise at the Rocket Lawyer letter stating I owe 100k+ USD in taxes for a corporate registry that has not turned any revenue to speak of or expenses. am I going to get extradited over this shit? God damn, I really wish they would've been clear that if you register through Stripe Atlas, you will somehow owe 100k+ in taxes. I thought taxes can only be collected if your company made the money, how can they expect me to pay this? I'm absolutely freaking out right now. There's no way I can pay this. It's fucking ridiculous that I have to pay taxes just for registering a delware company. 1 comments on Hacker News.
