Planning the year from our head office

Langley is our head office.

A tax return records decisions that were made months earlier. So we meet before your year-end, not after. We go through what the company earned, what it owes, and what it plans to buy. Then we plan the owners’ pay, the timing of large purchases, and what to set aside for next year’s tax.

Once the year closes, we prepare the statements and the T2 from books that are already current. There is no scramble in the last week.

Owners who want closer support can meet with us every quarter. Each meeting covers a short set of numbers, the cash position, and what is due in the months ahead.

Starting with us

  1. Talk to us first. Call, fill in the form, or visit 84 Avenue. Tell us what the business does and what is on your mind. The first conversation has no fee.
  2. Share last year’s file. Financial statements, the most recent corporate return, and access to your bookkeeping software if you use one.
  3. Get a written scope. It lists the work and the fee before anything starts. See our pricing.
  4. Bring the books up to date. If records are behind, we catch them up first, so the year-end rests on clean numbers.
  5. Receive your dates. Corporate, GST and PST, and payroll deadlines, sent ahead so nothing is a surprise. See the BC small business tax deadline calendar.

Some owners meet us at the office. Others work with us by phone, video and shared files. Either way works.

Questions Langley owners ask us

My business is in the Township, not the City. Does that change anything?For your corporate tax, GST and payroll, no. Those are federal and provincial. Your business licence comes from the municipality where you operate, and the City of Langley and the Township of Langley each issue their own.
Is Langley your main office?Yes. Langley is our head office. We also have offices in Abbotsford and Brampton.
Do I have to register for PST?It depends on what you sell. A business located in BC must register to collect PST if it sells or leases taxable goods, or provides software or taxable services. BC planned to extend PST to accounting and other professional services, and paused that change on September 18, 2026.
What do I need before I hire staff?A payroll account with the CRA, set up before the first pay. From each pay you deduct income tax, CPP and EI, then remit them to the CRA on schedule. Any business that hires a worker must also register with WorkSafeBC.
When does GST registration start?When your taxable sales go over the small supplier threshold, you must register, charge GST and file returns. You can register sooner if you choose, which lets you claim input tax credits for the GST you pay on business costs.
When are corporate taxes due?The T2 return is generally due six months after your year-end. The tax itself is due earlier: two months after year-end, or three months for many small Canadian-controlled private corporations. Interest runs from the payment date even when the return is filed on time.
Should I incorporate?That depends on what the business earns, what you plan to do with the money, and the risks you carry. We run the numbers with you and explain the trade-offs before you decide. General information only. Talk to us about your situation.
Can you take over from my current accountant?Yes. We ask for last year’s statements and tax filings, then set up your books so the change is smooth.
Which software do you use?QuickBooks Online and Xero. If you already use one, we work in your file. If you are starting fresh, we help you choose and set it up.

Serving businesses across Langley and the Township

Our Langley office on 84 Avenue works with owner-managed businesses and professionals across the City of Langley and the Township of Langley, in person or remotely. Whether you run a trades or logistics operation near 200th Street, a healthcare or professional practice in Willoughby, or a family business in one of the established neighbourhoods, the bookkeeping, payroll, corporate tax and year-end work is the same and the travel is short.

Contractors and builders. Several jobs at once, each with its own materials, subcontractors and holdback. We set up job costing so each job shows its margin, and we keep PST on materials and GST on invoices in order.

Trucking. Fuel, repairs and equipment make up most of the cost, and many loads cross provincial lines. We track costs per truck, run driver payroll, and plan equipment purchases so the tax effect is known in advance.

Farms. Seasonal work brings seasonal payroll and uneven cash. We plan around the busy months, and prepare the records lenders want when you finance land or equipment.

Professional practices. Dentists, lawyers and other professionals often run a professional corporation. We handle its year-end and the owner’s pay plan together.
