I need a Canadian-licensed CPA who can step straight into three core duties: running payroll, handling every tax submission, and giving solid rental-property tax advice. This is a contractor role paid on a predictable monthly retainer, yet the relationship will be long-term and integrated—think of it as joining the team without the formal employee label. Scope of work • Payroll: Process semi-monthly payroll for a small staff, remit source deductions, generate ROEs when needed, and issue year-end T4s/T5s, all inside QuickBooks. • Tax submissions: Prepare and file federal & provincial returns (corporate and, when required, personal), manage GST/HST, and keep us compliant with CRA deadlines. • Rental property guidance: Optimise tax deductions, ensure complete income reporting, and plan ahead for capital-gains exposure on several residential rentals. Key expectations • Work exclusively in QuickBooks for bookkeeping and payroll so data stays centralised. • Keep communication personal and proactive—flag issues before they become problems. • Provide brief monthly summaries of payroll figures and tax liabilities. • Share actionable, written recommendations on rental property deductions and capital-gains strategies at least once per quarter. Deliverables will be accepted when CRA filings show as “Filed,” payroll runs reconcile to bank debits, and advisory notes are delivered on schedule. If you’re a detail-oriented CPA who values ongoing, collaborative work, let’s talk.
