We Help You Get All Your Eligible Tax Deductions.

A tax deduction, sometimes referred to as a tax write-off, is any legitimate expense that can be subtracted from your taxable income. 

Tax deductions are a way to reduce your taxable income and, consequently, your tax bill. You must meet the eligibility criteria to claim a tax deduction.

Lowering your taxable income reduces the amount of tax you have to pay. Generally, multiple deductions can lower your income and put you in a lower tax bracket. In Canada, both federal and provincial deductions can help reduce your tax liability.

As your personal tax accountant in Toronto, Filing Taxes will also identify deductions to be included in your personal tax return to minimize your tax liability.
