Every Canadian return. Filed right, filed on time.

Lakeshore prepares personal, corporate, trust and non-resident filings for clients across the Okanagan and Greater Vancouver. You work directly with the professional preparing your return.

If it's a Canadian return, we prepare it.

CRA

Reviews & disputes

The year has twelve months. So do we.

The same person, every year

Not a rotating queue. Whoever prepared last year's return knows your file and picks up where it left off.

Reachable in July

Tax questions don't schedule themselves around April. An off-season call is part of what you're paying for, not a new engagement.

We handle CRA

If a return we prepared is reviewed or audited, we respond. You aren't left assembling documentation on your own.

You'll know exactly whose desk your file is on.

The ones we're asked most.

What do you need from me to get started?

Last year's return and notice of assessment is enough to begin. We'll send a specific list from there — we don't ask for documents we don't need.

When should a corporation engage you?

Before year-end, not after. Once the fiscal year closes, most planning options are already gone. If your year-end falls in the next ninety days, now is the time to call.

My situation is complicated. Is that a problem?

It's the work we prefer. Multi-jurisdictional filings, corporate reorganizations, trust structures and disputed positions are where a tax practice earns its fee.

I haven't filed in several years.

That's fixable, and it's far more common than you'd think. There are programs built for exactly this situation, and the outcome is usually better when you approach CRA first. Call us before they call you.

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes, and it's routine. We handle the transfer of records and the CRA authorizations. You don't need to have an awkward conversation.

Get in touch

Let's talk before the deadline, not during it.

A short conversation now is worth more than a rushed filing in April.
