Many business owners believe that they can deduct taxes because they have generated large expenses. Well, the expenses may not be legit as per the CRA for deduction. That's because in modern accounting, the losses or gains of a corporation is calculated by the double-entry system. What's that? Find out here 👇:

What rules apply when you dispose of a capital property? To answer the question, we should first address what is considered a capital property as per the CRA. In Canada, common types of capital property include cottages, buildings, land, equipment to operate businesses, and securities such as bonds or stocks. In general, capital property consists of depreciable property - which refers to those used to earn income for a business, or whose cost can be annulled by Capital Cost Allowance (CCA), such as equipment - and property that results in a capital gain or loss at its disposition, such as land or securities. While the formal type of capital property is bought to rev up business income, the latter pivots to purpose of investment.
As for capital gain or loss, either is likely to be incurred by disposition of eligible assets. That is, when you sell a capital property at a price higher than its Adjusted Cost Base , the disposition incurs a capital gain. Likewise, if you sell the same property at a price lower than its adjusted cost base, a capital loss occurs. ACB means the general cost of a property plus the expenses to acquire it, e.g. commission to agents when acquiring a land.

Many expect their tax refund deposit directly to their bank account within a month after they file their returns. However, this doesn’t mean that CRA is held accountable for sending you the money. Here is what to do if you miss the expected payment. 👇

Last 48 hours to file your personal income return!
Filing your tax return on time can save you a lot of money, even if it means that you file right before the deadline.
Although there is no penalty for late filing - provided that you do not owe any outstanding credits - the CRA will withhold benefits such as GST/HST credits until it has received your tax return. In other words, the later you file, the later you will receive the expected refund.
So long as you file before April 30, you may not have to pay back what you owe immediately. Given the tough year we have pulled through, the CRA has introduced more flexible repayment options. If you received any CERB, CRB, or EI, tallying income under $75k, you have up until April 30, 2022 to pay back what you owe to the CRA, free of interest. That said, if you fail to file on time, penalties incurred at 5% of what you owe.
For procrastinators who still haven’t got things ready, our advice is to file with what you’ve got. As a lesser known fact, your return doesn’t need to be perfect. The CRA allows taxpayers to amend their returns after filing.

Are you a news ju**ie? Do you gorge on digital media? Do you, like me, subscribe to the New York Times not so much for “the biscuit” as for the food column simply because you revel in good writing? Then, like me, you probably have spent quite a bit of more than you should on subscriptions. Fortunately, you are entitled to a non-refundable tax credit that may offset some of your subscription cost, provided that the subscriptions are made to any qualified Canadian journalism organization (QCJO) between 2020 and 2024.
