Tax problems we solve every day

Individuals and business owners across Kitchener-Waterloo come to us with the same challenges. Here is what we take care of.

Dreading tax season: shoeboxes of receipts, missed slips, and a CRA deadline you keep pushing off.
Overpaying the CRA: no idea which deductions you qualify for, so you quietly hand over more than you owe.
Books you never catch up on: reconciliations, HST tracking, and payroll that always fall behind.
A CRA letter in the mailbox: a review or reassessment notice with no one in your corner.
An accountant you never hear from: one call a year at filing time, and silence when questions come up.
Unsure how to structure your business: incorporate or not? Salary or dividends? Costly guesses.
Sorting receipts and tax slips ahead of filing season

Questions Kitchener clients ask us most

How much does an accountant in Kitchener cost?
It depends on the work. A simple personal T1 return costs far less than a corporate T2 with bookkeeping. We always provide a transparent, upfront quote after a free consultation, so there are never surprise invoices.
Do I have to come into your Kitchener office?
No. Many clients work with us entirely online by sending documents securely, while others prefer to meet in person at our office on Dubrick Crescent. We make both easy and serve clients throughout Kitchener, Waterloo, and across Ontario.
Can you help if the CRA has sent me a letter or review?
Yes. We regularly help Kitchener individuals and businesses respond to CRA reviews, reassessments, and audits. We deal with the CRA on your behalf and make sure your position is properly supported.
I am behind on several years of taxes. Can you still help?
Absolutely. We help clients catch up on multiple years of unfiled or late returns and get back in good standing with the CRA, often reducing penalties and interest in the process.
Should I incorporate my small business?
It depends on your income, goals, and liability. Incorporation can offer real tax advantages, but it is not right for everyone. We will walk you through salary versus dividends and the full picture before you decide.
Do you handle bookkeeping and payroll too, not just taxes?
Yes. We offer full-service bookkeeping, payroll, HST filing, and year-round advisory, so your taxes, books, and compliance all stay aligned under one roof.
