Frequently Asked Questions

What are some common business deductions I can make?

As a business owner, you’re able to deduct certain business expenses from your self employment income. This is valuable because business deductions decrease your taxable income, which will reduce your tax liability. Don’t forget to take all of your allowable tax deductions! Your accountant knows your business and can offer tax advice on which deductions you should be able to take.

Can I reduce my tax bill and improve my tax return?

While it might be too late to make changes to your 2024 taxes by the time you meet with your tax pro, you may still be able to reduce your tax bill. Talk to your accountant about what other options are available to you. One of the most common ways to reduce your tax liability after the tax year is over is to contribute money to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan.Ā 

Talk to your accountant to see if this is a strategy you can use and how much you can contribute to your retirement account. There are contribution limits based on your business income and age, but itā€™s a great way to improve your tax return.

What changes should I make this upcoming year as I do my tax preparation?

Working with an accountant isnā€™t just about filing federal, provincial, and local taxes. A good accountant can offer tax advice and help you strategically plan for a healthy business in the years to come. Ask your accountant if they offer advisory financial services to help you assess and grow your business.

You may specifically want to ask them about:

Cash flow analysis to help find opportunity areas

If you’ve ever obsessively stared at your bank account balance for minutes on end, you know that cash flow can be one of the most difficult aspects of running a small business. Your accountant can help you analyze your cash flow issues, give you advice on maximizing your tax credits, answer questions, and share advice and improvements so you peel your eyes away from those numbers and focus on growing your business! They can also help you simplify your personal income tax return so you can get the most tax deductions possible.

Financial forecasts and a business budget

Do you know where your business is headed? Your accountant should be able to help you put together financial forecasts for the upcoming year. You may also want to ask them to help you create a budget so you can make informed decisions about where and how to spend your money and invest in your business going forward.

Do you have any advice on estimated tax payments?

Are you sending enough money to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) each quarter for your taxes? Send them too much, and your tax refund money essentially becomes an interest-free loan for the government that year. Send them too little, and you could owe money, plus run the risk of facing an underpayment penalty. Your tax preparer can look at your current and projected taxable income to ensure that youā€™re sending the IRS the right amount per quarter this year.
