One accountant for the whole small business tax picture: the return you file, the sales tax you collect, the payroll you run, and the planning that shrinks next year's bill.

Trusted by businesses across Canada to stay compliant, organized and financially confident.
Our small business tax services in Canada start by matching the work to how your business is built, because the filings, deadlines, and planning levers differ completely:
we file the T1 and T2125 with every deduction your records support, calculate both halves of your CPP, and hit the June 15 filing and April 30 payment deadlines. Each year we also re-run the incorporation math on your real numbers.
we file the T2 and your personal return from one client file, protect the small business rate, and set your salary-dividend mix. One file means the two returns never contradict each other.
Unsure which structure you should even be in? That question is the first fifteen minutes of the free consultation, answered with math.
Our small business tax preparation services cover every return a small business generates, because owing one filing you forgot is how clean businesses collect penalties:
Our small business tax planning in Canada happens before year-end, because every move below dies on December 31. Here is what we do and why the timing matters:
The roughly 12.2% Ontario rate on the first $500,000 shrinks once passive investment income passes $50,000, and we restructure the investments before that income is earned, because afterwards is too late.
Salary builds RRSP room and CPP while dividends skip payroll costs, and the right mix changes with each year's income and rates, so we never repeat last year's answer by default.
Home office and vehicle claims need logs we configure up front, and equipment buys get timed against year-end, because an asset bought one day late waits a full year for its deduction.
The $1.25 million lifetime capital gains exemption needs your shares qualifying for 24 months before a sale, so we test and fix the qualification early, while there is still time to.
Your tax accountant for small business at Bestax works quarterly, not seasonally. Between returns, we run these checks on your file:
We watch the GST registration threshold and register you before revenue crosses $30,000, because crossing it unregistered means owing tax you never collected.
We calculate instalments the quarter they start applying, so the CRA's interest letters never get written.
We reconcile your income, sales tax, and payroll figures to each other, because the CRA cross-references all three, and matched filings are what keep reviews away.
We book the year-end planning meeting ourselves, before your deadline, because waiting for the client to ask is how planning windows close unused.
The full calendar sits on the CRA's small business deadlines page, and every date that applies to your business goes into our tracking at onboarding.
Beyond the annual cycle, our small business tax advisory handles the one-off decisions that outweigh a decade of deductions. Each runs as a defined engagement, and each ends with both options costed in writing:
Incorporate or stay sole: we run your profit through both structures and hand you the comparison
Family on payroll: we structure spouse and child wages inside the income splitting rules
Buy or lease the premises: we model both against your cash flow and tax position
Taking on a partner: we set the share and payment structure before the handshake
Selling the business: we plan the exit for the capital gains exemption, two years out
Each line is a working rule.
Small business files fail in known ways: unregistered GST past the threshold, instalments nobody calculated, and incorporation sold without the numbers. The rules block each one.
One client file carries your business and personal returns
Quarterly check-ins replace the once-a-year tax surprise
Every deduction claimed has a record standing behind it
Deadlines are tracked by us and confirmed to you early
Planning happens before year-end, while options exist
Incorporation advice comes with the math, both ways
One of the best firm I have dealt with in Ontario. Bestax supported my corporate tax filing perfectly and even answered my silly questions without getting irritated. Love the personal touch they add to service.

Yes. Both run from one client file. The returns stay consistent when the CRA cross-checks them.
Yes. We bring the accounts current and request penalty relief where you qualify. Catching up early always costs less.
It depends on profit, liability, and your plans. You get the comparison in writing, calculated both ways.
Before your year-end, at a scheduled meeting. Planning after December 31 is just filing with regrets.
Yes. We request the prior file and carry your history forward. Mid-year transitions are routine.
Receipts, invoices, bank statements, and a vehicle log if you drive for work. We give you the full list at onboarding.
