RICHMOND HILL AND BRAMPTON
Why Richmond Hill owners work with a Brampton firm
Richmond Hill sits in the middle of York Region, between Vaughan and Markham, with Yonge Street running through the centre. Its business life is spread out: medical and dental offices clustered around Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital on Trench Street and along Major Mackenzie Drive, accounting, engineering and design practices in the plazas on Highway 7 and Leslie Street, and a large number of companies run from a home office by owners who commute nowhere at all.
A good share of those owners are families who settled in Canada in the last ten or fifteen years. They often arrive with savings, property or a business back home, start or buy a company here, and bring a spouse or adult children into it. That mix creates questions a long-settled local business rarely faces: what the company should pay each family member, how a home office is handled when the owner is incorporated, and what was already owned abroad on the day they became residents.
Our office is at 181 Queen St E, Unit 5, in Brampton. By car it is usually 35 to 50 minutes along the 407, so most Richmond Hill clients never need to come in. Records come to us through a secure link and we meet on Teams at a time agreed in advance. If you would rather meet in person, book a time at the Brampton office.
What we see most often
In Richmond Hill, the questions we hear most are about family, the home and money from before Canada.
Four common problems, and what we do about each one.
- The problem
Family on the payroll with no paper trail.
Your spouse handles the books and your son answers the phones, and the company pays each of them a round number once a year with no timesheets or payroll records. If CRA asks what they did, there is little to show.
The solutionPay that matches the work
We set up proper payroll for family members, keep a short record of who does what, and help you choose an amount you could explain to CRA, alongside the dividend option where it fits.
- The problem
The home office nobody has worked out.
The business is run from the basement or a spare room, but the company has never paid rent or reimbursed any costs, or it pays the whole household bill. Either way, the numbers on the return are hard to defend.
The solutionA home office set up properly
We work out the business share of the space and costs, choose between reimbursement and other options with you, and record it the same way every month.
- The problem
Savings and property from before Canada.
You moved here with investments, a flat or a share of a family business abroad, and nobody ever wrote down what they were worth on the day you arrived. Years later, a sale or a reporting form needs that number.
The solutionValues recorded, forms checked
We help you document what you owned when you became resident and check each year which foreign reporting forms apply to you or the company.
- The problem
A company car that is half personal.
The corporation leases an SUV that also does the school run and the weekend trips. Without a log, the personal use is a guess and the taxable benefit is either missing or overstated.
The solutionA simple log and the right benefit
We show you what to record, calculate the benefit on your T4, and compare it with owning the car personally and charging the company for business kilometres.

ANSWERS BEFORE YOU START
Common questions.
General information, not tax advice for your situation. Book 15 minutes to talk about yours.
Do you have an office in Richmond Hill?
No. Our only office is at 181 Queen St E, Unit 5, Brampton. Richmond Hill clients work with us on Teams and share records through a secure link, and you can visit the Brampton office by appointment.
Can my corporation pay my spouse or children?
Yes, if they do real work for the company and the pay is reasonable for that work. We set up payroll for them and keep a record of their duties so the amount can be explained if CRA asks.
I moved to Canada recently and own property abroad. What should I do?
Write down what each item was worth on the day you became a resident, and keep the evidence. Depending on the total cost of what you hold outside Canada, you may also need to file Form T1135 each year. We go through this at the first year-end.
I run my company from home. Can it pay for my home office?
Often, yes, for the share of the home used for the business, but the right method depends on how the space is used and what you want on your personal return. We work it out with you and record it the same way each year.
How are fees set?
After the first call we quote in writing, based on the work your company needs. Nothing starts until you agree.
