Fee estimator

Choose the services you may need to see a rough fee range from my 2026 price list, in Canadian dollars plus HST. Estimates only: the final fee is confirmed in writing before work starts.

How my 2026 fee schedule works

Every amount displayed in this estimator comes from my 2026 fee schedule in Canadian dollars, and all fees are plus HST (13% in Ontario). The calculator shows typical ranges so you can budget before we speak, while your exact fee is always confirmed in writing in an engagement letter after I review your records and before any billable work begins.

What each service estimate covers

  • Personal tax returns (T1): preparation, review, and electronic filing of your federal and Ontario return, credits, deductions, and routine CRA correspondence. Basic returns start from $70 to $450 plus $25 per information slip, while returns with self-employment (Form T2125), rental properties (Form T776), capital gains, crypto, or foreign reporting (Form T1135) start at $500 plus HST.
  • Corporate tax returns (T2) and Compilation engagements (CSRS 4200): nil T2 filings are $450 plus HST, active CCPC T2 returns range from $700 to $4,000 plus HST, and year-end compilation financial statements under CSRS 4200 (formerly Notice to Reader; no audit or review assurance is provided) range from $1,500 to $4,500 plus HST.
  • Monthly bookkeeping, HST/GST, and Payroll: ongoing bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online or Xero ($125 to $1,500 per month plus HST), bi-weekly payroll up to 10 employees ($150 per month plus HST), T4/T4A year-end slips ($150 base plus $25 per slip plus HST) and HST/GST filings ($150 to $750 per return plus HST).

What moves a fee within the range and when a fixed quote is given

Where your file lands inside a range depends on the number of bank, credit card, and loan accounts, monthly transaction volume, whether reconciliations are current or need catch-up work, multi-currency (CAD/USD) activity, and shareholder loan or cross-border schedules. During our free 45-minute call, I review your prior returns and bookkeeping software and give you a written fixed quote or clear hourly cap through my contact page before work starts.
