Wanting to show your employees you appreciate them? Know how your gifts are taxed.

As long as a physical gift is valued at or below $500.00, it will have zero tax implications.

Tax Tip Tuesday.

Thinking about working abroad? Make sure you understand the tax implications before you go.

Canadians working and living in the US for part of the year might be subject to taxation in both countries. If you are working/living in the US for more than 183 days*, you'll be deemed a US resident for tax purposes and have to pay taxes in both countries.

Taking the time to research the tax liabilities before you head across the border can provide you with a certain peace of mind, and save you from a hefty tax bill later.
