Common questions
Your questions, answered.
Answers to common questions about our accounting and tax services. Select a question to read the answer.
Do you help self-employed clients?
Yes. We assist self-employed professionals, drivers and other small business owners with tax preparation and bookkeeping. Tell us about your activities so we can identify the services you need.
Can you help with a CRA letter?
We can review the letter with you, discuss the requested information and help prepare supporting records or a response. Mention any response deadline when you contact us.
What should I prepare for a consultation?
Begin with a brief description of your needs and the tax year or business period involved. We’ll let you know which documents are needed after discussing your situation.
Can I deduct vehicle expenses if I use my personal car for business in Canada?
Yes. For a self-employed business, eligible actual vehicle expenses are generally allocated using business kilometres divided by total kilometres. Keep receipts and a log showing each business trip’s date, destination, purpose and distance. The employee allowance rates below are not a flat-rate deduction for self-employed individuals.
If you use your personal vehicle in your duties as an employee of your corporation, arrangements may include:
- A reasonable per-kilometre allowance: in 2026, the prescribed provincial rates are $0.73 for the first 5,000 business kilometres and $0.67 thereafter. Territorial rates are $0.77 and $0.71. The allowance may be non-taxable if all CRA conditions are met.
- Reimbursement of documented actual business expenses, supported by receipts and mileage records. Avoid claiming the same expenses twice.
- Leasing or transferring the vehicle to the corporation is a separate arrangement requiring review of ownership, deduction limits and possible taxable benefits for personal use.
Can a corporation owned by a work permit holder qualify as a Canadian-controlled private corporation (CCPC)?
Yes, it can, provided the corporation meets all CCPC requirements. A work permit alone neither establishes nor prevents eligibility. The owner’s Canadian tax residency, rather than citizenship or permanent resident status alone, is relevant; residency depends on the facts, residential ties and applicable treaty rules.
The corporation must be private, resident in Canada and meet the Canadian incorporation or residency requirement. It must satisfy all restrictions on direct, indirect and combined control by non-residents, public corporations and specified listed corporations, and its own shares must not be listed on a designated stock exchange.
Canadian residents holding more than 50% of voting shares does not, by itself, prove CCPC status. Review the share structure, shareholder agreements and actual control before determining eligibility.
