Attention Alberta business travellers and fleet managers! 🚗🏨

Alberta’s Tourism Levy on hotels and short-term accommodations officially jumped to 6% on April 1, 2026—and a new 6% passenger vehicle rental tax takes effect on January 1, 2027.

If your team frequently travels across the province for field operations, consulting, or medical rotations, here is what you need to know:
✅ Lodging and rental fees remain 100% tax-deductible corporate expenses.
⚠️ Provincial levies cannot be claimed as GST Input Tax Credits (ITCs)—receipts must be itemized properly.

Learn how to adjust your expense tracking and protect your bottom line in our latest guide! 👇

⏰ Selling your business in the next 3 to 5 years?

🛑 Don't let excess cash in your corporation cost you a $1.275 million tax exemption!

To claim the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption (LCGE) in Canada, your business must pass strict active asset tests—both on the exact day of the sale and for the 24 months prior. If you hold passive investments, non-active real estate, or surplus cash in your company, you might need to "purify" your corporation right now so you don't miss out.

🚨 Locked out of your CRA account? The Canada Revenue Agency has gone full digital! 🚨

Starting this season, having a backup Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) option on file is mandatory to maintain access to your CRA portals. On top of that, physical paper drop boxes are permanently closed, and Notices of Assessment (NOA) have officially shifted to a digital-only format within "My Account."

Don't get caught off guard when you need your tax information most. Head over to our latest blog post to learn how to update your security settings, use the CRA's new 24/7 GenAI chatbot, and keep your tax profile fully secure.

Using ChatGPT for tax advice?

🛑 Think twice.

Recent data shows over 75% of accountants are spotting regular errors from clients relying on AI for bookkeeping and tax planning. From mixing up Canadian and U.S. tax rules to misinterpreting business expenses, these mistakes can lead to heavy CRA penalties. The CRA won't give you a pass for bad AI advice!

⭐️Treat AI as a starting point for research, but always trust a qualified CPA for your actual filings.

Welcome back, Snowbirds! ☀️🌵

Did you count your days in the U.S.?

The IRS uses a 3-year formula to determine residency. If you spent a lot of time south of the border, you might need to file IRS Form 8840 by June 15th to avoid U.S. taxes on your Canadian income.
