Heads up! We're closed Friday through Monday for BC Day long weekend 🏖️
Go enjoy the sunshine, eat something off a grill, and forget about taxes for 4 whole days. 🥳
We'll be here Tuesday, probably talking about our four day weekend way too much. 😁

📢 Important Update Regarding Our Pricing

We want to keep our clients informed of an upcoming change that will affect how our services are billed.

Effective October 1, 2026, BC Provincial Sales Tax (PST) will now apply to accounting and tax services in British Columbia. (UHG!)

Here's what that means for you:

🏢 Corporate Services – PST will be added to your invoices starting October 1, 2026.

🏠 Personal Tax Services – We've got you covered. PST will be included in your current pricing at no extra cost to you, until we update our rates in 2027.

We're committed to making this transition as smooth as possible and will keep you updated as things evolve. If you have any questions about how this affects your specific situation, don't hesitate to reach out — we're always happy to help!

Disability Tax Credit (DTC) Application changes coming very soon!

Have you logged in to your My CRA Account to see if you have an old cheque you never cashed or never received?

The CGEB benefit payment amounts are in your CRA account now.

🚨🚨Please do NOT call or email us to look it up for you, we can not accommodate those requests at this time due to our existing tax workload. You should call the CRA (1-800-959-8281) if you can not log in to your online account. 🚨🚨

If you log in to your CRA account you can find the payment schedule under Benefits & Credits.

Thank you for your understanding! 😁

The benefit that is replacing the GST Credit will begin on June 5th - you can find out details on the CRA website:
