Although the deadline to file taxes has been extended, the government is still encouraging taxpayers to file their taxes as soon as possible. This will ensure that your GST, CCB, and other credits for 2020 are properly calculated and you receive your proper payments.
If you are entitled to a refund from your tax return, why wait? File now and get that money in your pocket!
If you owe taxes, why not get it filed while you may have a little extra time on your hands? Regardless of when you file, you don’t have to pay any amounts owing until September 2020!
You may be nervous to come into our office to drop off your tax slips, or nervous to try new technologies to electronically submit your files to us, but we’re here to support you, whichever method you prefer. Our office is still open, if you’d like to drop your files in a box and run. But if you’re self-isolating, or just prefer to limit your outside interactions, we have the tools to assist you! Give us a call, or send us an email and we will set up a secure email for you to confidentially email us your tax slips! Still sound too difficult? Let us get your slips online from CRA and all you’ll have to do is send us a picture of your property taxes or rent receipts.
Not sure what government supports are available to you right now? CERB, CEWS, etc.? We’ll happily discuss which options you may qualify for and how to apply.
An additional safety measure has been put in place for files being dropped off to our offices, the physical files will be placed in a quarantine box for five days before being handled. We have implemented curb-side pick-ups and secure file sharing options in order to service these clients as well, please call for details. We are adapting our business model daily as developments arise and will continue to ensure social distancing guidelines are strictly followed.
A reminder for day-to-day operations are that our extended hours have now been reverted back to our regular hours of 9am to 5pm for our North Bay office and after 7pm and Saturdays by appointment only and can be arranged by calling 705-475-0323.
Thank you for continuing to support our local business!
Sincerely,
