Accountant in Calgary

Calgary runs on energy, engineering and a fast-growing technology sector, and its small businesses carry the same accounting load as any national firm. We handle bookkeeping, GST filing (Alberta levies no provincial sales tax, so it is 5% GST only), T2 corporate returns at Alberta's 8% provincial rate, T1 personal returns, and payroll for companies and contractors working through the oilfield service cycle. Everything is managed online through our secure client portal, so you never need to drive downtown for a meeting.

Calgary is Canada's energy capital and one of the country's fastest-growing technology and logistics hubs.

How much does an accountant in Calgary cost?

What accounting services do you offer in Calgary?

What are the tax filing deadlines for Calgary residents?

Federal deadlines are the same in every Canadian city: personal (T1) returns are due April 30 — or June 15 for eligible self-employed individuals and their spouse or common-law partner, with any balance owing still due April 30. Corporate (T2) returns are due six months after the corporation's tax year end.

What is the GST/HST rate in Alberta?

Alberta applies only the 5% federal GST — there is no provincial sales tax. Businesses in Calgary making more than $30,000 in worldwide taxable supplies in a single quarter or over four consecutive quarters must register for GST/HST (GST and QST in Quebec, registered separately with Revenu Québec). Accountants Online handles registration, input tax credits and return filing for Calgary businesses.

Are your accountants licensed?

Yes. Accountants Online is led by a CPA licensed in Ontario and British Columbia, who is also an IRS Enrolled Agent authorized to prepare US tax returns and represent taxpayers before the IRS.

Yes. Calgary residents can have personal (T1) and corporate (T2) returns prepared and e-filed with the CRA from anywhere in Alberta — slips and receipts are uploaded to your secure client portal and the filed return is stored there.
