Announcement
We are excited to launch a new process for year ends. If you have an upcoming year end, expect to see a few changes in how we kick things off:
Just prior to your year end, we will send you an engagement letter with prices and deadlines for your electronic approval.
Then in the week after your year end, we will send a checklist with all the questions we have and the documents we need.
Do I really need to pay tax instalments?
If you owed more than $3,000 last year in personal, corporate or GST tax, then yes, you have to make your instalment payments. Our most recent blog tells you everything you need to know about tax instalments, including how to much to pay and when its due. Monday, September 16 is the third quarterly, personal instalment deadline, so make sure you're up to speed!

The hidden costs of cheques
According to one study, the total cost of paying via cheque is between $15 and $25. Leading most European countries have nearly eliminated cheques, and 21 Million Canadians to register for interac e-transfer. There's also Paypal and several other e-payment options out there. Our friends at Plooto have a whitepaper on how cheques can cost you time and money. Read it here.
