…your taxable sales; registration for the GST and QST becomes mandatory… (end of small supplier status); an incorporated company must file…

• Maintaining and reviewing your accounts, including adjusting entries
• Bank and credit card reconciliation, cash flow tracking
• Preparation of financial statements: balance sheet, income statement
• Year-End Accounting Close and Year-End Reporting
• Tracking accounts receivable and accounts payable (age of accounts, follow-ups)
• Tracking GST (5%) and QST (9.975%) and preparing tax remittances
• Preparation of documents for your tax returns, T2, and CO-17 forms for corporations
• Organizing supporting documents, which must be kept for 6 years for the CRA and Revenu Québec

In Quebec, well-maintained accounting records are also your best protection in the event of an audit by Revenu Québec or the Canada Revenue Agency. Up-to-date records, supporting documents retained for 6 years, and taxes (GST/QST) properly tracked will help you avoid unpleasant surprises: At the federal level, filing a late return alone incurs a penalty of 5% of the unpaid balance, plus 1% for each full month of delay up to 12 months, and Revenu Québec imposes comparable penalties.

The goal is to turn your numbers into a management tool: knowing where you stand, forecasting your cash flow, and being prepared at all times. The accountant you find through Bankeo will get your books in order and stay by your side to adapt as your business grows.

For most businesses, monthly reporting is ideal: you stay on top of your cash flow, your GST and QST taxes remain up to date, and you avoid letting them pile up. The accountant will tailor the frequency to your business volume.

No. Self-employed individuals, sole proprietorships, and incorporated companies all benefit from well-maintained books. The accountant adapts to your situation and obligations, from basic bookkeeping to preparing the T2 and CO-17 forms.

You can fill out your request in just a few minutes, and we’ll connect you with the ideal accountant, often within 48 hours. We’ll introduce you to as many candidates as you need, for free and with no obligation, and we’ll continue to support you throughout the process.

Mixing personal and business expenses, neglecting bank reconciliation, failing to properly track the GST/QST, misplacing supporting documents (which must be kept for 6 years), and letting the backlog pile up. A good accountant establishes a routine that avoids these pitfalls.

The Bankeo matching service is free for you, with no hidden fees: you pay only your accountant’s fees, directly to them, and you can compare proposals before making a decision, with no obligation. Bankeo is funded by the accountants in its network through a fee per file, an amount known in advance. Price guidelines: The Bankeo Fee Barometer.
