One-time project · flat written quote

Months behind? We've seen worse.

The backlog gets scarier the longer it sits, but the fix is mechanical: statements in, months rebuilt, filings prepared, done. No judgment, no hourly meter, a flat quote in writing before any work starts, and a monthly service after so you never do this twice.

Flat quote, in writing Overdue filings handled Any starting condition
How it works

Four weeks, four steps, done.

Timelines scale with how far behind you are, but the shape never changes.

Free review & quote

Thirty minutes with whatever you have. We scope the months, the volume and the filings owed, and quote the whole project flat, in writing.

Day 1

Records in

Bank and card statements, POS and platform reports, payroll records. Missing some? We help you pull them from the bank and the platforms.

Week 1

Months rebuilt

Every transaction coded, every account reconciled to the statement, month by month, until the books agree with the bank to the penny.

Weeks 2-3

Filings & handoff

Overdue HST returns and payroll filings prepared, approved by you, submitted. Then the monthly service keeps you current, forever.

Week 4
Why sooner beats later

The backlog has a carrying cost.

Overdue returns accrue failure-to-file penalties plus interest at CRA prescribed rates, and both compound until you file. Every month of waiting is money, and the records get harder to reconstruct as bank portals age out statements and staff turn over.

If CRA hasn't asked yet, coming forward unprompted can sometimes qualify for penalty relief under the Voluntary Disclosures Program. We assess that before filing anything.

Then: the monthly plan takes over, so the backlog never rebuilds. Most catch-up clients say the same thing after: "that was less painful than I expected."
Catch-up FAQ

The questions everyone asks first.

We haven't found it yet. Three months, eighteen months, three years, the rebuild is the same process, just longer: statements, POS and platform reports, payroll records, reconstructed month by month until the books agree with the bank to the penny.

A flat quote in writing after a free review, priced by months behind and volume, never hourly. Light quarters run a few hundred dollars; multi-year rebuilds with filings run a few thousand. Either way you know the number before we start.

Late returns carry a failure-to-file penalty plus interest, and both grow until you file, so sooner always costs less. If CRA hasn't contacted you, the Voluntary Disclosures Program can sometimes provide penalty relief for coming forward unprompted; we assess that before filing anything.

You roll into the monthly service so the backlog never rebuilds. Both prices, the one-time catch-up and the monthly plan, are fixed in writing before any work starts. See pricing.
