Hi Steve,

I had sent an email to your initial request to ask if you are able to send a meeting request for today at either 11:30a.m.(EST) or alternatively 1:30p.m. (EST)?

Please note, I am away after today and returning next Wednesday and hoping we can clarify ASAP.

I realize that is short notice on the meeting so let me know if you have times available tomorrow or Friday.
 Also, I have corrected Gerri's email address to add her to the thread.

Thank you,
Steve

Could we set up a quick call to review and understand what is needed to address these questions?  If I understand correctly, you are needing an approved signing authority to give KPMG authorization for both Orofresh and Arya Health Living, but we also have payments past due?

Perhaps we could clarify in about a 15 minute call. I wanted to send a meeting invitation for 12:00 EST if you could let me know your availability.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Tim/Jessica,

Hope you are doing well.

For discussions with the Ontario Ministry we will require a completed authorization for this account (Arya Healthy Living Inc) which is separate than the Orofresh Enterprises account in BC which we had previously requested authorizations.  We were notified that the Ministry was unable to process the Orofresh Enterprises authorization (see attached) request as they could not find Gerri’s name as the authorized signing authority.

Could you please confirm who would be the authorized individual on the Arya Healthy Living account and we can prepare an authorization for signature accordingly and submit to the Ministry of Finance?

Hi Tim,

I will defer to George in our Indirect Tax practice, who works with Employer Health Tax.

Based on Ashley’s email attached, for discussions with the Ontario Ministry, we require a completed authorization for Arya Healthy Living. George – we should now have CRA access for Arya, but not Ontario Ministry specifically. Is this a separate authorization that you’re referring to?

Thanks,
