FAQ

Common questions

What documents do I need to get started?

For most new clients, we start with your prior year's tax return, recent bank and credit card statements, and any existing bookkeeping records. We'll give you a simple checklist tailored to your situation once we understand your business.

Do you only work with businesses in Ottawa?

We're based in Ottawa but work with small business and personal tax clients across Canada — most of our work is done remotely and securely, so location isn't a barrier.

Can you take over my bookkeeping mid-year?

Yes. We regularly onboard clients partway through the year, reconcile any gaps in prior records, and get your books current before moving to ongoing monthly bookkeeping.

Do you handle CRA reviews or audits?

Yes — if the CRA reaches out for a review or audit, we help prepare documentation and can represent your file directly with the CRA.

What does it cost?

Pricing depends on the scope of work — bookkeeping volume, payroll headcount, and filing complexity all factor in. Book a free consultation and we'll give you a clear, upfront quote.
