Back Filing of Personal Income Tax Returns

Things happen!

If you are falling behind your income tax return filings in Canada, you can come clean by filing all the pending tax returns. We help you in achieving compliance by falling past years’ tax returns (usually past ten years).

How much does it cost to file back tax returns in Canada? Well, different accountants and tax preparers charge different prices, most of them charging based on per return basis. This can result in a significant financial burden. We offer discounted prices to those who are in need. So, you can get in touch with us today.

Preparation and Filing of Applications under Voluntary Disclosure Program (VDP) for Individuals

In certain situations, we advise, or the client needs, to file a Voluntary Disclosures Program (VDP) Application. VDP applications are useful for taxpayers who want to come clean to the taxman!

A voluntary disclosure program provides a once-in-life opportunity to a taxpayer to correct any noncompliance. The program set criteria for the eligibility that must be met for a taxpayer to qualify for the relief. If a VDP application is rejected, the taxpayer has no protection from gross negligence or even criminal prosecution, and the CRA has a disclosure of noncompliance at its hand.

We help taxpayers by preparing and filing the VDP applications. By having us on your side, we ensure that your VDP application meets the eligibility criteria and does not fall under the exclusions. If your case is not eligible for VDP, we may offer some alternate planning and solutions to minimize any adverse impact.

Income Tax Planning – Mock or Planner Tax Returns

We prepare mock income tax returns or planner tax returns for individuals in Canada. Mock tax returns or planner returns are an important tool to best optimize your taxes ahead of year-end. Some of the situations where mock tax return helps greatly is; planning to immigrate or emigrate from Canada, having multiple streams of income, expected capital gain, deciding on tiered corporate structure, and many more. We perform tax planning using multiple scenarios and present the income tax effects of all of them.

If you are concerned that your income taxes for the year or next year are going to be very high, you are advised to plan ahead by requesting planner income tax returns in Canada.

Maximum Income Tax Refunds through Optimization

We do guarantee maximum tax situation optimization so that you do not have to pay extra tax dollars which you should not have, however, we do not guarantee maximum tax refunds. Our goal is to get you the maximum refund by doing a thorough tax return optimization to get you the deductions and credits applicable to you so that you have peace of mind that you have filed an accurate tax return.

We use the “maximum optimization” approach rather than “maximum refunds’ to retain clients, resulting in better economic benefits.

I spoke to numerous accountants before coming across Maroof. Immediately Maroof was able to identify and provide a solution to a big issue. The issue was my misunderstanding of a complexity. He took his time to explain me it in such a simple way. We were on a huge time crunch and on the verge of being hit with a huge penalty, Maroof provided us with all the reassurance we needed as him and his team did their magic. Not only did we save thousands in penalties but now our taxes situation is fully compliant and good to go for years to come! This firm has changed my mind about the accounting industry forever.
