We run your payroll, calculate source deductions, remit them to the CRA on time and prepare your year-end slips, so your employees are paid correctly and your remittances stay current.
What We Do
- Payroll processing — gross-to-net pay calculations and pay statements for each pay period
- Source deductions — income tax, CPP and EI calculated and withheld for each employee
- Remittances — prepared and filed with the CRA on your required schedule
- Year-end slips — T4 slips and the T4 Summary, filed by the end of February
- Records of Employment — ROEs issued when an employee leaves
- Ontario filings — Employer Health Tax and WSIB reporting, where they apply
What we need from you
- New-hire details: SIN, TD1 forms, pay rate and start date
- Hours, overtime, bonuses and any changes before each payroll cut-off
- Notice of terminations and leaves
Your responsibilities and ours
You approve each payroll and keep employee information up to date. We calculate, file and maintain the payroll records. Employment law questions — contracts, terminations and workplace policies — are outside our scope, and we will refer you to an employment lawyer or HR adviser.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I have to remit source deductions?
It depends on the average amount you withhold. Most small employers remit monthly. The CRA sets your schedule, and we follow it.
Can you pay me as the owner?
Yes, through salary. We can also review your salary and dividend mix as part of tax planning.
What happens at year-end?
We prepare T4 slips for each employee and the T4 Summary, file them with the CRA by the end of February and give you copies for your employees.
