The terms and conditions of lottery licences require organizations to provide the licensing authority with a verified financial statement within 180 days of the organization’s year-end. The type of financial review required depends upon the licensee’s gross annual revenues from all sources.

Licensees that receive less than $250,000 in gross annual revenues must prepare financial statements in accordance with the standards set out in the CPA Canada Handbook.

Licensees that receive $250,000 or more in gross annual revenues must prepare financial statements in accordance with the standards set out in the CPA Canada Handbook and have them audited by a public accountant.

The licensing authority may require an audited financial statement to be prepared at the licensee’s expense at any time.
