I brought my 2018 return into CNC to be reviewed as I felt I had missed something when I had originally filed. Sure enough, they were able to spot it and I am now waiting for a refund from Revenue Canada in the mail! I dealt with the owner, Nafees, who is friendly, knowledgeable and prompt. I'll definitely be bringing my taxes to him again this year. It was a very positive experience.

Nafees has great problem solving skills. I had an issue with CRA for a while. They not only hold all my 2017 refund but also reassessed me for additional taxes. My previous accountant couldn't resolve the issue. Nafees handled the matter within few weeks. Not only I received my 2017 refund but also CRA reversed the reassessment. Nafees also filed 2018 taxes and I received my 2018 refund as well within couple of weeks. On the top of all this customer service was great, very polite staff. Fees was very reasonable. I will recommend Nafees for all the tax work. I am not going to change accountant anymore. This is the firm, I will be using from now on, for all my tax work.

Your advise was very helpful for my business.

Frequent Objections About Outsourcing Bookkeeping Services

Even if your bookkeeping is simple and you can do it yourself, hiring an accountant still has its advantages. An accountant can provide you with professional expertise and advice that can help you make informed financial decisions. They can also help you ensure that your books are accurate and up to date, which can help you avoid errors and penalties.

While accounting software can be a useful tool for bookkeeping, there are still several advantages to hiring a CPA firm. A CPA firm has a team of experts with specialized knowledge and experience in accounting, tax laws, and financial reporting. They can provide valuable insights and advice that accounting software may not be able to offer.

While it’s understandable to want to rely on a friend who can do your bookkeeping, hiring an accounting firm can offer additional benefits. A professional accounting firm can provide a wider range of financial services beyond bookkeeping, including tax planning, financial analysis, and audit and assurance services. They have a team of experts with specialized skills and knowledge in accounting, tax laws, and financial reporting, and can provide you with valuable insights and guidance.

The main difference between a CPA accountant and a bookkeeper is the level of education, training, and expertise. A CPA accountant has completed a college degree in accounting and has passed the CPA exam, which requires additional coursework and professional experience. They are licensed by their state and are held to high ethical and professional standards. A bookkeeper, on the other hand, typically has a high school diploma or some college coursework in accounting and may have some experience in bookkeeping tasks.

  1. Expertise and Experience: CPA firms have extensive knowledge and experience in accounting, tax laws, and financial reporting. They are trained to handle complex financial transactions, and they stay up to date with the latest laws and regulations. They can provide valuable insights into your financial data that can help you make informed decisions.
  2. Quality of Work: CPA firms are held to higher standards than bookkeepers. They have a reputation to uphold, and they must maintain their license by adhering to strict ethical and professional standards. This means that they are more likely to produce high-quality work than a bookkeeper.
  3. More Comprehensive Services: CPA firms offer a wide range of financial services beyond bookkeeping, including tax planning and preparation, audit and assurance services, and financial consulting. This means that you can get all your financial needs met by one firm, rather than hiring multiple professionals.
  4. Risk Management: Hiring a CPA firm can help mitigate risk for your business. They can help you identify potential financial risks and provide solutions to minimize them. They can also help ensure that your financial statements are accurate, reducing the risk of errors or fraud.
  5. Scalability: As your business grows, your financial needs will become more complex. A CPA firm can provide the resources and expertise to handle the increased workload. They can also provide valuable guidance as you navigate new financial challenges.
