How the work proceeds

  1. 01

    Identify the filing

    Tell me which return or deadline needs attention and whether any prior years remain outstanding. I’ll confirm the filing period, due date, and whether related catch-up work should be addressed separately.

  2. 02

    Gather the records

    I’ll send a focused request for the records and information needed for the return. If something is missing or unclear, I’ll explain what is needed and why.

  3. 03

    Prepare and review

    I’ll prepare the return, resolve questions with you, and provide it for your review. You’ll see the result, including any balance due or expected refund, before you authorize submission.

  4. 04

    Authorize and file

    Once you approve the completed return, I’ll file it, confirm that it was received for processing, and let you know what to expect next.

When tax work is more involved

Some returns require a more tailored approach because of their structure, history, or complexity. If that applies, I’ll share the recommended path and pricing.

When a matter requires specialized tax or legal expertise, I can help coordinate an appropriate referral.

Annual returns within Growth and Strategic

Growth and Strategic include one annual income tax return after twelve paid months. If the return is required sooner, the included amount is prorated from the service start date. This applies to a T2 for a single-province Canadian-controlled private corporation or a T1 with one T2125.
