For clients with complex structures, it used to be the case that intercorporate dividends were tax-free, deductible under section 112 of the Income Tax Act. They paid a dividend to a parent holding company, not a care in the world. Until the rules changed about 10 years ago (I guess that tells you how long I’ve been in the industry). The game changed. Tax planning is more important than ever. When paying large intercorporate dividends, safe income calculations should be prepared to avoid unintended consequences. Luckily, in cases of corporate reorganizations, there are overriding rules that protect you. Our specialties include tax consulting and tax planning.

Happy April 1st!

It’s officially T1 Personal tax season.

Just a reminder, do reach out to your accountant if the CRA tells you to pay a balance owing! With the move towards online services, individuals may not know that they are getting requests for audit to support certain claims, and they get automatically disallowed when they receive no answer.

For Canadian tax purposes, every individual is deemed to have disposed of all of their assets as at the date of death, regardless or whether or not those assets have been sold. Depending on the situation, the tax filings could be complex, and could involve the filing of the terminal personal tax return, as well as a separate T3 estate filing. For example, if an individual holds significant investments in non-registered accounts, specific calculations are required for the pro-ration of income, as well as tracking for future sales. Individuals holdings shares in private corporations may need tax planning to avoid double taxation.

Learn how Tax Returns in Canada apply to trusts and estates. Understand T3 return filing, executor duties, and estate taxation responsibilities.
