The Canadian tax and accounting landscape for private schools & tutoring

Beyond these sector-specific issues, every private schools & tutoring client also needs the core Canadian accounting services: bookkeeping, GST/HST filing (or PST/QST where applicable), payroll, year-end financial statements, T1 personal returns for owners, and T2 corporate returns for the company. BOMCAS Canada handles all of these under one engagement letter so nothing falls through the cracks.

  • Industry-aware bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online, Xero, or Sage Business Cloud Accounting, with a chart of accounts and reporting suited to private schools & tutoring.
  • GST/HST/PST/QST compliance tailored to the indirect-tax treatment of your industry (exempt, taxable, zero-rated, or mixed supplies).
  • Canadian payroll with CRA source deductions, T4/T4A/T5018 slips where required, ROEs, and provincial WCB/WSIB/WorkSafe compliance.
  • Personal T1 returns for owners, partners, and employees.
