GST/Tax Returns

If you're just starting out, we can help you decide whether you need to be tax registered from the outset or not. And we will continue to monitor your situation, so that should it become obligatory for you to register for tax, we can deal with all of the paperwork for you.

Whether a new or existing business, we will also look at the tax schemes you are eligible for and establish whether you would be better off adopting one or a mixture of them. Some tax schemes can lead to tax savings and a reduction in bookkeeping responsibilities.

Your local TaxAssist Accountant can prepare your tax return; either from your own bookkeeping records or we can take care of your record keeping and the tax return. And we will try to ensure that you claim as much tax as possible; particularly on contentious items such as mixed-use expenditure and automobile expenses.

As with other areas of tax, we can act as your Agent for tax purposes and therefore correspond with CRA or your behalf. Paper tax returns are pretty scarce now but our software also allows us to file your tax returns online with CRA.

Needless to say, late tax registration, errors, late tax returns and late tax payments can all lead to penalties and possibly interest being charged. So, allowing your TaxAssist Accountant to take care of your tax affairs, not only gives you peace of mind, but it should also avoid you wasting your hard-earned cash on penalties and interest.
