Complimentary Corporate Tax Review · Incorporated Canadian businesses

Six Places Incorporated Business Owners Overpay

Most owners set their corporate structure up once, at incorporation, and never revisit it — while the business changes underneath it every year. This is a free 45-minute review of six specific areas where the structure and the business have drifted apart. You leave with a written action plan whether or not you ever work with us.

The review

The six areas we go through

01

Salary vs. dividend mix

How you're paying yourself, what it costs in total tax and CPP, and whether the split still fits your current income level and RRSP room.

02

Retained earnings position

What's sitting in the corporation, whether passive investment income is at risk of grinding down your small business deduction, and what the options are for the balance.

03

Income splitting eligibility

Whether family members can be paid or receive dividends under current TOSI rules, and whether your existing arrangement still qualifies.

04

Holdco and corporate structure

Whether a holding company is worth the compliance cost in your situation, and what it would and wouldn't do for you.

05

Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption readiness

Whether your shares would currently qualify if you sold, and what typically disqualifies them. This matters years before you plan to exit.

06

Bookkeeping and reporting quality

Whether your books are good enough to support any of the above. Most planning fails here first.

We tell you which of the six are worth acting on and which aren't. Usually it's two or three, not six.

Who this is for

This review is a fit if…

Your business is incorporated in Canada
Revenue is above $250K, or there are retained earnings sitting in the corporation
You've been incorporated at least two years
You're paying yourself and have never had the salary/dividend split reviewed

And it isn't a fit if:

You're a sole proprietor and not incorporated
You're pre-revenue or in your first year
You need a return filed this week — this is a planning conversation, not a filing service
