01Overview

We are Canadian accountants. We do not prepare US federal or state tax returns, and we say so. What we do is keep the Canadian books of a business with US operations coherent: registered where it needs to be registered, consolidated in one currency, and reported to one board.

The principal has registered US payroll accounts after a merger, consolidated Canadian, US and overseas entities for a retailer expanding into California and New Jersey, and worked alongside the US advisers who handle the filings there.

02What it covers
  1. 01

    US payroll registrations

    State employer accounts opened and payroll coordinated with a US provider, so the first US hire is paid correctly.

  2. 02

    Multi-currency consolidation

    Canadian and US entities consolidated monthly with exchange differences identified and explained.

  3. 03

    Intercompany transactions

    Intercompany charges documented and reconciled between entities, ready for the transfer pricing conversation with your US adviser.

  4. 04

    Coordination with your US CPA

    One set of books and one calendar shared with the firm that prepares the US returns, so nothing falls between the two.

  5. 05

    Cross-border banking

    US dollar accounts, lines of credit and letters of credit reported alongside the Canadian facilities.

  6. 06

    Sales tax exposure

    Mapping where the business sells and ships so your US adviser can assess state sales tax obligations early.

03What you receive

Deliverables, named in the engagement letter.

Scope, deadlines and fee are agreed in writing before work begins. What follows is what that letter typically lists for this service.

  • Consolidated monthly statements in one reporting currency
  • A shared calendar with your US adviser
  • Documented intercompany balances

Tell us where the books stand. We will tell you what it takes.

Describe the situation and you will get a straight answer about what the work involves, what it costs, and how soon it can begin. Nothing is billed until an engagement letter is signed by both sides.
