Preparing and Filing Personal Income Tax Returns (T1)

Filing a personal income tax return in Canada can be more complex than it seems—especially if you have multiple income sources, deductions, or credits. Whether you're a salaried employee, self-employed professional, freelancer, or have rental or investment income, preparing your T1 personal income tax return accurately is essential to avoid overpayment, reduce audit risk, and ensure full compliance with CRA regulations. Our tax professionals specialize in helping individuals like you file with confidence, minimize tax liability, and take full advantage of allowable benefits.

We start with a detailed review of your income sources—employment income, self-employment earnings, pension, rental property income, capital gains, dividends, and foreign income. From there, we identify applicable deductions and credits, such as RRSP contributions, medical expenses, tuition, child care, moving expenses, and charitable donations. These tax-saving opportunities are often missed when filing alone or with basic tax software.

For self-employed individuals, gig workers, and professionals with business income, we provide specialized support in calculating business expenses, vehicle usage, home office claims, and capital cost allowances (CCA). We ensure all required schedules and forms are correctly filled and that your net income is reported in line with CRA expectations.

Our team also helps you manage carry-forward amounts such as unused tuition credits, non-capital losses, and RRSP deduction room. We ensure continuity across tax years so you don’t miss long-term savings. If you're new to Canada or filing for the first time, we guide you through the process, explain the forms, and make sure you're registered correctly with the CRA.

Once your return is prepared, we review it thoroughly, then submit it electronically for faster processing and refunds. We provide you with a digital copy of your return, along with a breakdown of how each figure was calculated, so you have full transparency. If the CRA issues a review or request for additional documentation, we respond on your behalf and provide the necessary follow-up.

With our expert T1 tax preparation services, you reduce the risk of mistakes, late filing, or missed credits. Whether your tax situation is simple or more complex, we offer reliable, personalized support to help you stay compliant and get the most from your return—year after year.

Preparing and Filing Corporate Tax Returns (T2)

Filing a corporate tax return is a critical responsibility for any incorporated business operating in Canada. The T2 return is more than just a form—it's a comprehensive report of your company's financial performance, tax liabilities, and deductions. Whether you're a new startup or a growing enterprise, accurate and timely corporate tax filing is essential to remain compliant with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and avoid interest, penalties, or audit risks. Our expert corporate tax services are tailored to ensure your return is prepared with precision, backed by proper documentation, and optimized for tax efficiency.

begin by reviewing your company’s financial records, including income, expenses, payroll, depreciation, and prior-year carry-forward balances. Our team works closely with your internal bookkeeping or accounting system—whether it's QuickBooks, Xero, or another platform—to ensure all financial data is complete, accurate, and categorized according to CRA guidelines.

From there, we prepare the full T2 corporate income tax return, including necessary schedules such as Schedule 1 (Net Income for Tax Purposes), Schedule 8 (Capital Cost Allowance), and Schedule 50 (Shareholder Information). We also apply any eligible tax credits, small business deductions, or losses carried forward to reduce your overall tax liability. Whether you're a CCPC (Canadian-Controlled Private Corporation), non-resident corporation, or general business corporation, we tailor our approach to suit your structure and industry.

Our goal isn’t just compliance—it’s optimization. We help you identify opportunities to defer income, split income among shareholders, or invest in eligible tax-saving assets. For businesses operating in Québec or other provinces with separate tax regimes, we also manage dual filings and provincial schedules to ensure you meet every local requirement.

Once the T2 return is finalized, we file it electronically with the CRA and provide a full summary report, including supporting schedules and a tax reconciliation. If you're facing a deadline or behind on previous filings, we help you catch up, avoid late fees, and negotiate voluntary disclosure if needed.

In case of a CRA review or audit, we offer complete support, from responding to queries to preparing supporting documentation and financial explanations.

Our corporate tax filing service gives you more than just a completed return—it gives you clarity, peace of mind, and the strategic insight needed to support future business decisions. Let us handle the complexities, so you can focus on growth.

Sales Tax Registration (GST/HST/QST) and Remittance

If your business operates in Canada, you may be required to register for and remit Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), and/or Québec Sales Tax (QST). These indirect taxes apply to most goods and services sold in Canada, and handling them properly is critical for staying compliant with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and Revenu Québec. Our professional service for sales tax registration and remittance ensures that your business is set up correctly and remains compliant with all federal and provincial sales tax obligations.

We begin by helping you determine whether registration is mandatory for your business. If your total taxable revenue exceeds $30,000 over the last four calendar quarters, you're required to register. However, some businesses—such as taxi and rideshare drivers or those selling taxable goods/services in Québec—must register immediately. We evaluate your operations to identify all required registrations, whether for GST, HST, or QST, and guide you through every step of the setup.

Once registration is confirmed, we complete and file your applications with the CRA for GST/HST and with Revenu Québec for QST. We ensure all information—such as your business number, effective registration date, reporting frequency, and filing method—is correctly configured to avoid future issues. This setup is also coordinated with your accounting system, whether you use QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or another platform.

In addition to registration, we provide ongoing sales tax remittance support. Each reporting period—monthly, quarterly, or annually—we calculate your GST/HST/QST collected on sales and subtract allowable input tax credits (ITCs) on business expenses. We prepare and file your returns accurately, ensuring that all figures align with your financial records. If your business qualifies for the simplified or quick method of reporting, we help determine whether those options are more beneficial.

We also handle payments to the CRA and Revenu Québec, ensuring your remittances are submitted on time to avoid penalties or interest. Our service includes recordkeeping, reconciliations, and audit readiness, giving you peace of mind during any tax review or compliance check.

With our comprehensive sales tax registration and remittance service, your business is always one step ahead—compliant, accurate, and ready to grow without the stress of tax complications.

Preparing and Filing GST/HST/QST Returns

Once your business is registered for GST, HST, or QST, preparing and filing regular returns becomes an essential part of your financial responsibilities. These filings allow you to report the sales taxes you've collected and claim Input Tax Credits (ITCs) for eligible business expenses. Whether you're a small business with annual reporting or a growing enterprise submitting monthly or quarterly returns, accurate and timely GST/HST/QST filings are critical to staying compliant and avoiding penalties. Our sales tax return service ensures your filings are correct, complete, and submitted on time—every time.

We begin by reviewing your sales transactions to calculate the total amount of GST/HST or QST collected from customers. This involves analyzing your invoicing system, point-of-sale records, or accounting software data. Our team ensures your sales are correctly categorized between taxable, zero-rated, and exempt items. Whether you operate in a single province or across multiple jurisdictions, we tailor your filing to account for different tax rates and rules.

Next, we identify your eligible Input Tax Credits (ITCs), which are sales taxes paid on business-related purchases and expenses. These can include office supplies, marketing costs, software subscriptions, rent, utilities, and professional services. For QST, we also consider Input Tax Refunds (ITRs). We ensure your documentation is in order and that all expenses meet CRA or Revenu Québec eligibility criteria to maximize your refund or reduce your tax payable.

Once your return is prepared, we file it electronically using CRA’s My Business Account or Revenu Québec’s ClicSÉQUR portal. We ensure that every box is filled correctly, from reporting net tax owed to completing required schedules for adjustments, rebates, or prior-period corrections. If a payment is required, we arrange for remittance on your behalf and provide confirmation receipts.

Our service also includes reconciling your sales tax accounts with your general ledger, ensuring your books match the amounts reported to tax authorities. This helps you stay audit-ready and simplifies year-end financial reporting. In case of notices, discrepancies, or audit inquiries, we provide full representation and correspondence management.

Filing GST/HST/QST returns may seem routine, but mistakes can be costly. With our expertise, you gain accurate filings, peace of mind, and more time to focus on your business. Let us handle compliance—while you focus on growth.

Handling Tax Audits and Correspondence with CRA/Revenu Québec

A tax audit or official correspondence from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) or Revenu Québec can be stressful and time-consuming—especially if you’re unprepared. Whether it’s a simple information request, a full audit, or a notice of reassessment, responding appropriately is critical to protecting your business and maintaining compliance. Our tax audit and correspondence support service is designed to help individuals and businesses navigate these situations with clarity, professionalism, and confidence.

We begin by thoroughly reviewing any communication you've received from the CRA or Revenu Québec. This includes audit letters, review notices, missing information requests, or assessments related to personal income tax (T1), corporate tax (T2), or sales tax (GST/HST/QST). We explain the notice in plain language, outline the required actions and deadlines, and develop a plan to respond effectively.

If your business is selected for an audit, we prepare all necessary supporting documents—such as invoices, receipts, financial statements, payroll summaries, and sales tax records. We organize the data in the format preferred by tax authorities, ensuring nothing is missed and every claim is properly supported. We also review your prior filings for accuracy and identify any areas where voluntary corrections or amendments may be beneficial.

Throughout the process, we act as your representative in all dealings with CRA and Revenu Québec. This includes submitting documents, responding to audit queries, attending meetings (virtually or in person), and negotiating payment arrangements if necessary. Our goal is to reduce your involvement in the back-and-forth communication, allowing you to focus on running your business while we manage the audit proceedings.

In the case of a reassessment, we review the proposed changes and, if necessary, prepare and submit a formal objection or appeal. We also offer guidance on how to correct past filings, implement stronger internal processes, and reduce audit risk going forward. If your issue relates to sales tax, payroll, or benefits claims, we ensure that each area is addressed accurately.

All accounts payable activities are documented in detail, supporting tax filings, audits, and financial reporting. Our approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also gives you peace of mind that your obligations are being handled responsibly and professionally.

With our audit and tax correspondence support, you're never alone in dealing with government agencies. We advocate on your behalf, ensure full compliance, and aim to resolve issues efficiently and with minimal disruption. Let us handle the complexity—so you can move forward with confidence.
