Compliance and Planning for Individuals with Complex Financial Profiles
Managing personal tax obligations can be challenging, especially when your financial picture includes multiple income sources such as employment, investments, business activities, rental properties, or pension income. I offer comprehensive personal tax services that simplify complexity and ensure your filings are accurate, compliant, and aligned with your financial goals.
Personal Tax Filing Deadlines
Standard Filing Deadline
April 30 of the following year: For most individuals, the T1 return is due April 30. Any balance owing must also be paid by this date to avoid interest. If April 30 falls on a weekend, the deadline moves to the next business day.
Self-Employed Filing Deadline
June 15 of the following year: If you or your spouse or common-law partner carried on a business during the year, the filing deadline extends to June 15. However, any taxes owing are still due by April 30. Interest accrues from May 1 if unpaid.
Deceased Individual – Terminal Return Filing Deadline
Based on date of death: It is the later of the normal filing deadline and 6 months after death. This translates to generally April 30 of the following year, or 6 months after death for later-in-the-year deaths.
Tax Compliance
Filing Requirements
T1 Tax Returns: I prepare and file individual income tax returns in compliance with CRA requirements. All income sources, including employment earnings, self-employment income, and other taxable amounts, are reported accurately.
Supplementary Forms: I handle complex schedules for business income, rental properties, investment income, farm income, and pension distributions.
Additional Returns: I also prepare related forms such as T3, T4, T5, and GST where applicable, ensuring a complete and compliant submission.
Thorough and Detail-Oriented
Every personal tax situation is unique. Whether you manage rental properties, operate a business, or hold a diverse investment portfolio, I work carefully to ensure your return reflects your specific circumstances and helps reduce the risk of CRA follow-up.
