Canada

Your books, GST/HST and payroll, run to the CRA calendar.

For Canadian owners, the back office is a GST/HST return on the schedule the CRA gives you, source deductions remitted every month, and the books underneath both. We run all of it as one system, so the due dates stop living in your head.

Where the time goes

The GST/HST return lands on you

The return needs books that are reconciled, with input tax credits claimed properly, and the due date comes round whether they're or not.

Late remittances cost money

Source deductions belong to the CRA from the moment you withhold them, and a remittance that arrives late carries a penalty on top.

Books kept for the return, not for you

Bookkeeping caught up the week before filing gives you a figure to report and nothing to decide with.

One person holds all of it

If the only person who knows the payroll is away on payday, the payroll waits with them.

What we run for you

What changes

What owners in Canada ask

Do you file our GST/HST returns?

Yes. We prepare each return from reconciled books and file it on the schedule the CRA has assigned you. You see and approve it before it goes.

Can you handle payroll remittances?

Yes. We run each pay run, deduct CPP, EI and income tax, remit them to the CRA on time, and issue T4 slips at the year end.

Do you work in Canadian hours?

Yes. Your account runs in your working day, so a question gets answered while you're still at your desk.

Which accounting software do you work in?

We work inside your own accounts, so everything stays yours. Tell us what you use and we'll confirm on the call.
