🌙✨ Nightfall Bookkeeping & Taxes is Hiring! ✨🌙

Our little spooky office has grown faster than we ever imagined, and it’s time to add another magical human to our Nightfall family 🖤

We are looking for a Client Care & Administrative Assistant — someone who loves helping people, staying organized, and bringing calm to the chaos.

This role will focus on:
🌙 Responding to client messages & emails
✨ Answering phones
🌙 Providing updates and keeping communication flowing
✨ Helping clients with paperwork, signatures & general questions
🌙 Keeping things organized behind the scenes

You might be our person if you are:
🖤 Friendly, patient & professional
🖤 Comfortable talking with people
🖤 Organized (even when things get busy!)
🖤 Good with computers & willing to learn
🖤 Able to handle a fast-paced environment with kindness and confidence

Tax knowledge is an asset but not required — we can teach programs and procedures, but the right personality is everything.

Fair warning… we’re not your average office. 🌙
We believe work can be professional AND fun. Expect moons, spooky décor, lots of laughs, caffeine, busy seasons, and a team that truly cares about what we do.

This position will start at approximately 20–30 hours per week, with increased hours during tax season.

If you think you’d fit into our weird little wonderful Nightfall family, we’d love to hear from you. 🖤✨

Please send your resume to: [email protected]

We will reopen tomorrow during regular business hours.

Thank you all so much for the continued love and support you show our little spooky business every single year. We appreciate this community more than you know 🖤

After taking some time to reflect on the last few months, all I can say is… wowzers. 🖤

To all of our new clients — welcome to the Nightfall family 🌙

This tax season brought so many new faces through our doors, and honestly… we are incredibly grateful for every single one of you. The support this community has shown our small business over the past few years has been overwhelming in the best possible way.

What started as a small dream has grown into something bigger than I ever imagined, and that growth is because of YOU.

Every share, recommendation, kind review, referral, coffee drop-off, encouraging message, and client who trusted us with their taxes or bookkeeping has helped Nightfall continue to grow and thrive.

🖤🌙 Happy World Goth Day 🌙🖤

Today we celebrate the beautifully strange, the darkly elegant, and the souls who never quite fit into the ordinary world — and honestly? We wouldn’t want to.

Goth isn’t just black clothes and dramatic eyeliner (though we do love those too 🦇). It’s art, music, self-expression, resilience, individuality, and finding beauty in the shadows.

Here’s to moonlit hearts, spooky souls, witchy vibes, and everyone who embraces their magic unapologetically.

Stay spooky.Stay authentic.Stay magickal. ✨

🖤 Happy World Goth Day from your local Tax Witch 🖤

🌙 Real Talk from Nightfall 🌙

Our team is continuing to receive repeated status requests, aggressive messages, pressure for faster completion, and disrespectful behaviour toward staff.

We understand waiting is frustrating.
We understand taxes are stressful.
But disrespecting our staff or attempting to pressure us will not move your return ahead of anyone else’s.

At Nightfall, returns are completed in the order they are received. Always.

This tax season, Tracey is the sole preparer handling approximately 2,500 returns, while the rest of our team works behind the scenes managing phones, intake, CRA requests, signatures, payments, organization, and client support. Everyone here is already working beyond normal capacity.

We are still operating within our posted processing timeframe, and we have been transparent from the beginning:
⚠️ Our processing time is approximately 4–6 weeks once ALL documents, signatures, and information have been received.

Sending repeated messages asking if your taxes are done does not speed things up. In many cases, it actually slows the process down because staff must stop working on returns to respond to constant follow-ups.

We also need to be very clear:
Any abusive, threatening, or disrespectful behaviour toward our staff will not be tolerated.

We are human beings doing our absolute best under an overwhelming workload created by multiple office closures in our area and an unprecedented tax season volume.

We will contact you as soon as your return is ready.
No one has been forgotten.

We appreciate the many clients who have shown patience, kindness, and understanding during this season. Your support means more than you know. 🖤

We choose accuracy over speed — every time.
Because fixing mistakes costs far more than waiting a little longer.

🖤

🖤 Clarification from the Nightfall Coven 🖤

We’ve had a few people misunderstand our previous post, so we just want to clarify how our process works.

✨ You do NOT need to pay upfront when dropping off your taxes.
✨ We are absolutely able to prepare your return before payment is made.
✨ Payment is simply required before we electronically file (EFILE) your return with the CRA.

This means you can still:
🌙 Drop off your documents
🌙 Have your taxes prepared
🌙 Review your return at pickup/signing time
🌙 Pay when you pick up/sign your completed return

However, we cannot submit your return to the CRA until:
✔ Payment has been received
✔ Authorization/signature forms have been completed

This is standard office policy and part of CRA compliance requirements for EFILE.

Thank you to the many amazing clients who have been patient and understanding through another extremely busy tax season. 🖤

🖤 A Quick Reminder from the Nightfall Coven 🖤
We honestly can’t believe we have to make this post, but here we are.
At Nightfall Bookkeeping & Taxes, we DO NOT file tax returns without BOTH payment and signed authorization forms completed first.
This is not us being difficult — this is a legal requirement and part of protecting both our clients and our business. Before any return can be submitted to the CRA, we must have:
✨ Signed authorization/T183 forms
✨ Payment for services
✨ Confirmation that the return has been reviewed
If these steps are not completed, your return stays in “prepared” status and is NOT filed with the CRA.
During tax season we process thousands of returns, and unfortunately we cannot chase down signatures and payments for weeks while also managing an overwhelming workload.
We work incredibly hard to keep things accurate, organized, and compliant — and we appreciate the many clients who respect our policies and our team. 🖤
Please remember:
Prepared does not mean filed. Filed means we received your signed forms and payment.
Thank you for understanding,
🌙 The Nightfall Coven
