Are You Self-Employed?

The benefits of having us organize and tally your shoebox of invoices and expense receipts for a modest fee is you'll have a nice organized envelope with everything in the event the CRA requests you to produce any receipts to back up your claims.

Do You Own Rental Property?

Feel free to use our rental information form to track income & monthly expenses from your rental property. Capital expenditures like new appliances and significant improvements need to be noted but are treated slightly differently than a normal expenditure.

Retiring? Are You a Senior? (65+)

Those first couple of years transitioning into retirement can often catch you unprepared with new multiple sources of income (CPP, OAS, Pension, RIF, Investments, etc). Often tax deducted at source is insufficient on your overall income.

A little tax planning at the beginning of the year can go a long way to avoiding a nasty tax surprise.
