CBSA 9/18/2018 In Progress Confirm processes and authorities regarding the issuance of BN9 to non- resident importers. CBSA 9/5/2018 Completed CRA provided CARM with an answer to this question.

TCP WG 9/26/2018 Not Started Check with declaration filers to see if the potential extra data elements being asked at time of release (i.e. the accounting data or current B3 data) will cause an increase of shipments being stopped, due to their internal system performance issues. TCP WG 9/26/2018 Not Started Provide the CBSA with statistics regarding percentages of transactions that contain all data elements at time of release. TCP WG 9/26/2018 Not Started Provide statistics on how many transactions currently require corrections between the initial filing and the final B3, as well as what specifically changed.

There were no major areas of misalignment between the sub-working groups, and deep- dive discussions were generally representative of what was said during the Consultation

• Sessions. The key themes from the deep-dive output documents were as follows:

Implications of accounting date = release date need to be fully understood and clarified by the project. CARM Portal needs to facilitate interaction with non-resident importers, and importers with multiple BN numbers. LVS and e-Commerce remain prominent challenges that CARM needs to keep in mind. Management of permissions and authority in the portal will be critical to CARM’s success. Notification capabilities will be key to ensuring TCPs have the required visibility around account activity. Real-time monitoring of security bonds will be beneficial, but the Agency’s position on liability needs to be established.

CARM

CBSA Assessment and Revenue Management

Potential billing process raised concerns on how corrections made towards the end of billing cycle, audit assessments, and recourse results would be reconciled and handled in CARM.

Hig ighlights fr from August Consultation & August 23rd

Deep-Dives

Potential offsetting process raised concern around how to reconcile debit/credits with multiple third parties. TCPs would like to be able to pick

• ffsetting options, if they are in good standing with the CBSA.

There was a clear indication that TCPs want liability to be at the importer level. Moving away from cash and cheque payments was generally well received, as long as the transition to electronic-only is gradual and carefully monitored. Notifications and sufficient visibility will be required to properly inform TCPs of relevant changes to their transactions, and enable accurate reconciliation of their records.
