Tax Compliance and Canadian Bookkeeping


Owning and operating a business in Canada means you have some legal responsibilities. Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) requires regular reporting of Canadian sales tax, payroll taxes, and income taxes. Each province and territory has their own tax related requirements as well. These regulations are often referred to as government compliance requirements.



Tax compliance returns and payments should be filed on time. Failure to report and remit by due dates leads to costly penalties and interest charges. This site provides the Canadian bookkeeping information you need to know to put more money in your pocket and avoid these charges.




Mediocrity is a choice;

it’s not always made consciously, but it is still a choice.

Be Tax Compliant This Year

Did you make a mistake on a tax return you filed with CRA ... or get some more slips after you sent in your return?

Find out why you should amend it ... and what form to use.

GOOTKNOW

What is considered the "official" receipt date at the CRA?

Business compliance returns must be physically received by the CRA (not Canada Post) on or before the due date. Canada Post mailing date is not considered to be the receipt date. (The post marked date is only valid as a receipt date for individuals not businesses.) If the due date falls on a weekend or a public holiday, then you have until the next business day.

If you pay electronically, check with your financial institution to see how long from the date of your payment until the funds reach CRA. The funds have to be received by CRA (not your bank) by the due date.

Most financial institutions process overnight. In most cases you have to make your payment online before midnight on the day before the payment is due.

What is the difference between calendar year-end and fiscal year-end?

It is important to understand the distinction between a fiscal and calendar year-end when doing tax compliance.

Calendar year-end refers to the twelve month period January to December. Most sole proprietors in Canada must have a calendar year-end. Generally, CRA requirements do NOT allow sole proprietors to choose their fiscal yearend. However there is one alternate election available for a different year-end than December 31 to qualifying businesses the first time your business files a tax return.

Fiscal year-end refers to any twelve month consecutive period that has been selected (or deemed by CRA) as your "accounting" year. Normally you would choose this to be the least busiest period of activity. Any change to your fiscal yearend, once selected, must be approved by CRA. If you have more than one corporation, you may want each corporation to have different fiscal year-ends to allow for optimal tax planning.

BOOKKEEPER'S
TIP
...... ......... ..............^

Even if you can't pay the taxes owing, strive for tax compliance by always filing compliance returns by their due dates to avoid pricey penalty charges. Interest charges on the balance owing will still apply.


GAAP UPDATE

Government Remittances ... and ASPE

Have you wondered if the new Accounting Standards for Private Enterprise (ASPE) that came into effect on January 1, 2011 affected how you report government remittances on your financial statements?

The June/July 2010 issue of CA Magazine (www.camagazine.com) has an article titled What's Changed?. The article explains that the disclosure requirements under ASPE have been reduced ... and simplified.

One significant disclosure has been added. There is now a requirement with respect to government remittances other than income taxes to disclose the amount payable at the end of the period.

The reasoning behind this is that lenders are the primary users of small business financial statements. Lenders view the status of government tax compliance remittances as important because they have priority status in a bankruptcy.

Tax Compliance Just Got Easier in Canada!
Pay Taxes Online At CRA Website


Canadian bookkeeping just got a little easier. As of October 2, 2009, CRA has introduced My Payment service. You can pay your business (and individual) taxes online instantly from your bank account through a secure link with approved Canadian financial institutions.

The institutions currently able to participate are RBC, TD, BMO and Scotiabank as they have INTERAC Online agreements.

This service allows you to pay GST/HST, payroll deductions, corporate income tax, excise duties and taxes, individual income tax ... and more.

If you pay after hours, or on the weekend or a holiday, the online payment will be credited the following business day. This service will not allow post dated transactions.

It works by signing onto My Payment located on the home page of the CRA website. Once in My Payment, a set of instructions comes up. Just follow the instructions and make your selections as prompted. No banking information is shared with CRA.

PST Tax Compliance Notes - PST was eliminated in BC on June 30, 2010. HST became effective July 1, 2010. The final due date for supplemental returns (July to December, 2010) was January 23, 2011. A return should have been filed each month following tax collection. Vendors were permitted to only refund PST to their customers up to October 31, 2010.

Ernst & Young has an excellent article on PST wind-up points for Ontario and BC that is a must read. It was located at www.ey.com> Services> Tax> PST wind-up points for Ontario and BC but you may have to do a google search now for their 2010 Issue No. 36 20 October 2010 Tax Alert. I have a copy if you need information on this and can't find it.

Due to the 2011 referendum held in BC, PST will be returning to BC in 2013 ... awesome twice the paperwork, twice the fun as the B.C. tax compliance rules change again! :0(

    Before you file your tax return, be sure to check out Revenue Canada's web page on "Tax Savings ... working for you!" (under About the CRA).

    It provides you with information on some of the tax credits and benefits available to Canadians. If you click on Business or Individuals on the side bar, you will have access to more detailed information.

    The Business side bar has been divided into categories to make it easy to find what is relevant to you:

    • Construction
    • Daycare
    • E-commerce
    • Farmers
    • Film
    • Fishers
    • International and non-resident
    • Self-employed
    • Small businesses

    The Individuals side bar has been divided into categories (not as nice as previously but still good) to make it easy to find what is relevant to you:

    • Employees (previously the working taxpayer)
    • Students (previously the student)
    • Seniors (previously the senior)
    • Persons with disabilities (previously the disabled and their caregivers)
    • "The parent" has been moved. You will find it on the home page navigation button called Child and Family Benefits recipients
    • Tradesperson (previously the tradesperson)
    • Tax professionals
    • Other categories have been added that I won't list here.

    While still a good review for any Canadian bookkeeper on the latest changes, it's not as concise an overview as in past years.

    [I found this site through ...] Google search - not sure if 2nd or 3rd page but I kept going till I found something that might help. [This website has helped ...] Considerably! It's pretty easy to navigate, down-to-earth, with a good perspective on life in business and vice versa (tea breaks! non-human office assistants! SYTYCD likes!)

    Wendy, Barrie, ON Canada




    Been coming to the site for some time. Love the laid back "lake" feel. Reminds me of summers in Michigan when I was young. Great to have someone paving the way from corporate craziness to a more serene life far from the madding crowd. I see a field full of Katahdin Hair Sheep when I walk out my back door, but I'm a bookkeeper when I'm looking out the window. You've helped make that happen. Thank you!

    Marie, New Richmond, U.S.A.




    I Love, love, LOVE this site! Did I mention I love it?! I do my own bookkeeping with QuickBooks and whenever I am stuck on something, I refer to your website and find exactly what I'm looking for to help. Everything is explained so well, in plain English and easy to follow. This site has been helpful many times, but most recently, with GST filing. I filed for the first time this year and when I went to file the next quarter, the numbers hadn't cleared from the previous quarter and everything seemed to be a mess. I found out on your website that I had filed with the CRA but did not complete it in QuickBooks. By following your steps, I sorted it out and it was a very easy fix. Phew! Thanks!

    Cara, Calgary, AB, Canada




    Thanks for the information. It is nice to see there is an online site where I can go get answers to my bookkeeping questions. It was really a stroke of luck I came across this site. I googled my bookkeeping question to see if I could get an answer, a shot in the dark, and bookkeeping-essentials was one of the results listed. I looked over some other sites but none were as flexible as this site. I got a quick response and I will be using this site in the future. Thanks again.

    Your website is positively BRILLIANT! I don't care at all for the numbers side of my business, but you've made it interesting, fun, comfortable--downright enjoyable! Bite-sized WELL WRITTEN bits walking me through fundamentals, encouraging me, explaining. (Note: "well written" covers everything from "interesting" to "intelligent." The reader doesn't stumble over elementary grammar errors, lots of typos, etc.) I've only just discovered this lovely gold mine!

    Cherie, U.S.




    I have just come across your site and it's great...thank you so much for the time it must take you to compile the data and information. I have no accountancy or book keeping knowledge and am currently trying to learn QuickBooks via YouTube. (lol) There must be an easier way as I don't have the time or finances, what with starting a new business, to attend a course at college or similar.

    Debbie, Vancouver, BC Canada




    As a novice at the bookkeeping game, this site has become my go to site for research. Thank you for the great resource. I do my data entry one or twice a year (very low volume) and I find I need retraining on Quickbooks for things like depreciation/CCA.

    Den, St. Albert, AB Canada




    A More Than FANTASTIC site! So often I've thought about putting something together like your site, but didn't have the time. Googling information about Supplies or Tools over under $500.00 was the most useful Google search I've ever done because of discovering your site. Way to go and THANKS VERY MUCH. PS.... Also loved it that you put the Tax chart for GST HST back to 1997; I spent hours trying to get this information from the CRA website. I've not had time to look at your whole site, but I will be refering to it often I'm sure and will mention anything I think is missing, should I not discover information as I might be looking for it. Thanks, Again

    This website has been very helpful. It's been too many years since school and I'm a bit rusty.

    Sue, Medicine Hat, Alberta




    I just found this site tonight. It's going to help me a lot as I learn how to use my Quickbooks more fully (I've only used it for payroll). Don't ask me how I've managed to keep the books this long -5 years- without knowing much more than how to balance a checkbook. I'm getting some help from a professional now, but your site will keep my pro costs down. Thank you. I will definitely donate once I begin to use it with my QuickBooks. It's [your site] easier to understand than Help in QuickBooks. QuickBooks assumes I know bookkeeping concepts. It [your site] appears to be very thorough, though I've only scratched the surface of what I can learn. I took an online bookkeeping class a couple of years ago, but this site has direct application to quickbooks and it's a searchable site!

    This is a marvelous site and one that I would like to use as the basis for training bookkeepers. I am a CPA here in the states and am in the process of building a what will hopefully become a substantial bookkeeping business (not a dark wood & gold lettered CPA firm). I want to serve the small business owner with the day to day service they need. You have obviously put in an enormous amount of time and effort here (there is no doubt there) and provide a wealth of fantastic information.
