Tax Agent’s registration terminated for failure to pass the ‘fit and proper person’ test – 12 month before he can reapply – AAT upheld Board’s decision

On 7 August 2019, the Tax Practitioners Board uploaded a news article that a Mr Shmuel had his registration as a tax agent terminated, because he failed to meet the fit and proper person’ test. Also, the Board imposed a 12 month period, where he could not re-apply. Further, the AAT upheld the TPB’s decision.

See below for details of what he did wrong (there’s quite a bit).
