Payroll done right, your team paid, the CRA satisfied
From pay runs to remittances, T4s and ROEs. We run your payroll accurately and on time, so your team is paid correctly and your CRA remittances are never late.
What our payroll services include
Payroll is unforgiving: late remittances and wrong slips mean penalties. We take it off your plate entirely, calculating deductions, remitting to the CRA, and filing year-end slips, so your people are paid right and you never think about a deadline.
Payroll support also covers the setup details that often create problems later: employee information, pay frequency, source deduction settings, vacation pay, remittance due dates and year-end T4 reporting. If you are hiring for the first time, we connect payroll with bookkeeping and CRA accounts so wages, employer costs and remittances show up clearly in the same financial records you use for tax.
Payroll also affects cash flow, bookkeeping and corporate tax, so we keep the records consistent across the business instead of treating each pay run as an isolated task. That makes year-end reporting cleaner and easier to explain.
It also keeps payroll deadlines visible before they become penalties.
Payroll stays simpler when every cycle is recorded consistently.
Payroll work also includes the controls behind each pay run. We confirm employee details, pay frequency, vacation treatment, taxable benefits, source deductions, remittance frequency and year-end slip requirements before the first payment goes out. A clean setup prevents most payroll problems before they reach CRA or an employee.
A dependable pay process protects both sides. Employees need accurate net pay and clear pay stubs; owners need remittances, deductions and employer costs recorded correctly. We keep those details organized so payroll reports, bookkeeping, T4 slips and corporate tax records agree with each other.
We also keep a simple record of assumptions, changes and approvals, so recurring cycles are easier to review and year-end questions have a clear answer.
A final review before each due date keeps the routine calm, accurate and easy to repeat.

Payroll questions we hear a lot
I’m about to hire my first employee. What do I need?
A payroll account with the CRA, the right deductions, and a compliant pay process. We set all of it up and run it for you from the first cheque.
First-time Payroll setup should be connected to the rest of the company. We open the payroll account, set up employees, confirm pay dates, calculate deductions and make sure bookkeeping records wages, employer costs and remittances correctly. That way payroll, corporate tax and cash flow all tell the same story.
We also confirm whether contractors should really be treated as employees before the first cycle is built. Misclassification can create source deduction, CPP, EI and recordkeeping problems later, so we raise the question early when the facts suggest it.
Can you pay me as the owner through payroll?
Yes. If salary is part of your compensation plan, we run owner payroll and coordinate it with your corporate tax strategy.
Owner Payroll needs a slightly different conversation. Salary affects CPP, RRSP room, personal tax instalments and corporate cash flow, while dividends create a different planning result. We coordinate the pay plan with your corporate tax return so compensation is intentional, documented and affordable.
What happens at year-end?
We prepare and file your T4 and T4A slips and provide copies for your team, no scramble in February.
Payroll year-end is easier when it is prepared all year. We keep employee records, taxable benefits, remittances and source deductions aligned during the year so T4 and T4A slips are not a February scramble. If something changed during the year, we flag it early.
Before year-end, we review names, addresses and totals, then compare slips to the payroll records and bookkeeping. This simple check prevents many corrections after employees have already used their slips.
If a correction is needed, we handle it calmly and document what changed.
Do you handle ROEs when someone leaves?
Yes, we issue Records of Employment accurately and on time so former employees can access benefits without delay.
Payroll support also covers employee transitions. When someone leaves, hours, vacation pay, final deductions and ROE timing all matter. We prepare the record properly so the employee can access benefits and the employer has documentation if questions come back later.
