Went to election — deprived of status of individual entrepreneur
A parliamentary candidate Illia Dabratvor was deprived of the status of individual entrepreneur.
He was going to make changes in his
election materials and bulletins about his employment status, reports BelaPAN.
"I am listed as an individual entrepreneur. Therefore I applied to the
Regional Commission to reflect this in campaign materials and bulletins instead
of the previous status of "unemployed". District commission denied me
in this, despite the fact that I have brought a statement of registration of
the IE status and receipt of payment of the tax in September", - said Ilia Dabratvor.
For confirmation that he is an individual entrepreneur Dabratvor went to the
executive committee of the Minsk region. "But there I was told that on
August 31 tax inspectors submitted documents to eliminate the status of IE and
the executive committee eliminated it with the motivation that I did not
conduct any activity", - said Dabratvor.
“The strange thing is that on 13 August I submitted a tax levy and took my
declaration – there was not a word about the liquidation. The executive
committee and the tax commission say that they have sent me a letter, informing
me about the fact that my activity is audited and about the elimination of my
IE, but I have never seen this letter. Also I was told that the tax commission
has a big staff turnover, and the person who decided to liquidate my IE status
resigned immediately after it. I cannot even address my complaints to
anyone", - said Dabratvor.
He noted that, as a rule, even those people who want to eliminate the IE status
on their own, have problems with bureaucracy. In his case, his status was eliminated
with "no red tape and without even notifying the owner".
"I believe that this was done deliberately and purposefully, in order to
not make changes to the bulletins, when I am figuring as unemployed", -
said Dabratvor.
