See how our expert Departure Tax Return tax and accounting services have helped Canadian businesses save money and stay compliant.
A $87,000 reassessment landed at a shareholder of a US LLC in Kelowna, British Columbia, resting on foreign accounts that had passed the $100,000 T1135 threshold three years earlier. The objection was allowed in full.
A Canadian resident with a US rental property in Barrie, Ontario had already been penalised over US tax paid but no foreign tax credit claimed on the Canadian return. A relief application cancelled $117,000 of that penalty.
Closing the books at a US citizen living in Canada in Moncton, New Brunswick took 6 weeks because of a departure year filed as a normal resident return with no deemed disposition reported. It now takes 9 days.
Remittances at a Canadian corporation with US customers in Windsor, Ontario were chronically late because of 25% withholding on gross Canadian rent where a section 216 election would have taxed only the net. Fixing the schedule refunded $64,000.
A snowbird spending winters in Arizona in Victoria, British Columbia was filing correctly and still overpaying because of a US LLC taxed as a corporation in Canada, producing double tax on the same income. Restructuring the position cut $34,500 from the annual bill.
Scaling exposed foreign accounts that had passed the $100,000 T1135 threshold three years earlier at a non-resident owning Canadian rental property in Red Deer, Alberta. The back office was rebuilt to match, freeing $68,000.

Direct answers to what Canadian business owners actually ask before hiring an accountant.
Departure Tax Return starts at a fixed fee quoted before any work begins. The quote is locked at the outset and does not change mid-engagement, and you pay only after you have reviewed and approved the deliverable. Compare every plan on our transparent pricing page.
At minimum: prior-year returns and notices of assessment, your bank and credit-card statements for the fiscal period, payroll records if you have employees, and GST/HST filings. We send a checklist tailored to your situation after the free 15-minute call.
Most engagements are completed within 3 to 5 business days once your documents are complete. Catch-up work covering multiple years takes longer, and we tell you the realistic timeline before you commit rather than after.
We respond on your behalf at no extra charge for any return we prepared. Every figure we file is supported by documentation retained in your file, which is what turns a CRA review from a crisis into correspondence. See how our CRA audit support works.
Yes. Late filing penalties compound at 5% of the balance owing plus 1% per month, so the cost of waiting is real. We prioritise catch-up work and, where eligible, file under the CRA's Voluntary Disclosures Program to reduce penalties.
Yes. We are a cloud-based practice serving every province and territory, so your location does not change the price or the service. Browse our coverage across Canada to find your city.
We work across construction, healthcare, e-commerce, professional services, restaurants, real estate, transportation, technology and non-profits, each with its own deduction profile and CRA scrutiny patterns. See all industries we serve.
Software applies the rules you already know about. A CPA finds the ones you do not: capital cost allowance timing, the small business deduction threshold, shareholder loan repayment rules, and TOSI exposure on family dividends. The fee is usually smaller than the deductions it surfaces.
Our departure tax return services include complete filing, compliance management, and strategic advice customized to Canadian tax laws.
