Tax that's planned ahead, not just filed

Corporate tax, estate and trust filings, and CRA audit support for Canadian franchise businesses — accurate, on time, and structured to keep more of what you earn.

What's included

Tax handled before it becomes urgent

From year-round planning to the filings themselves — and support if the CRA ever comes asking.

Year-round tax planning

Tax isn't something we think about once a year. We plan ahead with you — timing, structure, and the deductions your franchise costs are entitled to — so there are no surprises when filing comes around.

Corporate tax preparation

Your corporate returns prepared accurately and filed on time, with franchise costs — royalties, fees, fund contributions — treated correctly so you claim what you're entitled to and stay onside with the CRA.

Estate and trust filings

For owners thinking past this year — estate and trust returns handled with the same care as your business, so what you've built is protected and the filings around it are done right.

CRA audit support

If the CRA reviews or audits you, you don't face it alone. We guide you through the whole process — what they're asking, what to provide, and how to respond — so it gets resolved properly while you keep running your business.

Why it matters

Franchise tax is only simple if you do it every day

A franchise doesn't have an ordinary cost structure. Royalties, marketing-fund contributions, and the fees you paid to buy in all have their own tax treatment — and getting that treatment right is the difference between claiming what you're entitled to and quietly leaving money in deductions you never took.

It cuts the other way too. Costs claimed wrong, filings late, or returns that don't hold together are exactly what draws the CRA's attention — and a review lands on your desk no matter how busy your locations are. Tax handled properly all year means filings that stand up on their own, and a much quieter relationship with the tax man.

Most of all, tax that's only thought about in filing season is tax you can't do anything about. The decisions that actually change what you owe — how you structure, when you spend, what you claim — happen during the year, while there's still time to make them. That's why we plan ahead instead of just looking backward once a year.

How it works

From first call to filed and planned

Wherever your tax currently stands — up to date, behind, or somewhere in between — here's how the handover works.

  1. 01

    A conversation first

    We learn how your franchise is structured, where your tax stands today, and what deadlines are ahead. No commitment.

  2. 02

    We get up to speed

    We gather your records and prior filings, build a clear picture of where you stand, and from there your tax obligations are off your hands.

  3. 03

    Planned, prepared, filed

    From there, your tax is planned through the year and your returns are prepared and filed on time — every year, without the scramble.
