Implementation & Monitoring

We transform financial strategies into reality through seamless execution and proactive monitoring. The shifts and life changes for long-term success.

Personal tax (T1)

We file T1 personal tax returns for Canadian residents — owner-operators, founders, executives, and high-earning individuals. Our typical client has more than just a T4: they have business income, investment income, rental income, foreign income, capital gains, optimization opportunities, or all of the above.

Returns are prepared, reviewed by a CPA Ontario member, walked through with you before filing, and submitted electronically with proof of acceptance.

Specifics

  • Self-employed and incorporation income (T2125, T2200)
  • Capital gains and losses, including ACB tracking
  • Foreign property reporting (T1135, where total foreign property cost exceeds CAD $100K)
  • RRSP, TFSA, FHSA optimization
  • Salary vs. dividend planning for owner-operators
  • Spousal income splitting where applicable
  • Multi-year planning (carryforward losses, donations, capital gains harvesting)

Corporate tax (T2)

T2 corporate tax returns for Canadian-controlled private corporations (CCPCs) and Canadian-resident corporations. We work primarily with operating companies, holding companies, and investment companies — not large public corporations.

Specifics

  • CCPC small business deduction optimization
  • Inter-corporate dividend planning (Section 84(1), 84(3), 84.1)
  • Capital dividend account (CDA) tracking
  • RDTOH / GRIP / LRIP balance management
  • Loss utilization planning
  • Asset rollovers (Section 85)
  • Holding company structures
  • Owner-manager remuneration optimization

HST/GST

HST/GST registration when you cross thresholds, ongoing filing, and the structural questions (place of supply, input tax credits, zero-rated supplies, exempt supplies) that quietly cost businesses money when handled wrong.

  • Initial HST/GST registration
  • Quarterly or annual filing
  • Place-of-supply analysis for cross-border services
  • Input tax credit recovery
  • Provincial sales tax (PST) where applicable — BC, MB, SK
  • Quebec sales tax (QST) where applicable

Tax planning

Tax filing is what happens after the year is over. Tax planning is what happens before, when decisions can still move outcomes meaningfully. We work with our regular clients on:

  • Salary vs. dividend optimization for owner-operators
  • Holding company structures (creditor protection, intergenerational planning)
  • Capital gains exemption planning for qualifying small business shares
  • Multi-year loss utilization
  • Estate planning coordination with your estate lawyer

Frequently asked questions

Can you handle complex T1 returns with foreign reporting?

Yes — including T1135 foreign income verification, T1134 foreign affiliate reporting, and the foreign tax credit work that comes with multi-jurisdictional residents. We coordinate with your tax advisor in the foreign jurisdiction where needed.

Can you represent us in a CRA audit?

Yes — for routine CRA reviews, audit responses, and pre-assessment reviews, we represent clients directly. For Tax Court matters or complex appeals, we coordinate with a tax litigator.

What's your filing deadline policy?

We commit to filing on time when documents are received by our internal deadlines (typically 21 days before the CRA filing deadline). Late documents may push filing into an extension.

Do you handle estate or trust returns?

Yes — T3 trust returns, terminal T1 returns for deceased persons, and estate-related work. Coordinate with your estate lawyer where applicable.
