Common questions from Ontario businesses about our virtual CPA services.
Can a Toronto CPA handle my corporate taxes if my business is in Ottawa or Mississauga?
Yes. CRA filings are handled federally — there is no requirement for your CPA to be in the same city as your business. Gondaliya CPA serves clients across Ontario and Canada entirely virtually, with the same licensed CPA team and the same flat-fee pricing regardless of location.
How do I share my documents if we never meet in person?
We use TaxDome — a secure, encrypted client portal. You upload documents directly from any device, anywhere in Canada. All files are protected and compliant with Canadian privacy regulations.
Is the pricing the same for virtual clients as for Toronto in-person clients?
Yes — our pricing is identical for all clients regardless of location. We charge fixed flat fees with no hourly billing and no hidden costs. You receive an exact fee before we begin any work.
What if I need to speak with someone urgently during a CRA audit?
We are available by phone and video call evenings and weekends to 9 PM. For CRA audit matters, we represent you directly — you do not need to communicate with CRA yourself. We handle all correspondence on your behalf virtually.
Do you serve businesses outside Ontario?
Yes — we serve businesses across Canada virtually. Corporate tax, bookkeeping, GST/HST, payroll and incorporation services are available to Canadian businesses in every province. International tax services are available for cross-border and non-resident situations as well.
How quickly can I get onboarded as a virtual client?
Onboarding takes less than 24 hours in most cases. Book a free consultation, receive your exact fee, make payment via Interac e-Transfer to info@gondaliyacpa.ca, and receive portal access the same day. We can begin work immediately after onboarding.
Is Gondaliya CPA a licensed and registered CPA firm?
Yes — Gondaliya CPA Professional Corporation is a fully licensed CPA Ontario firm. Firm ID 61330051. You can verify our registration directly on the CPA Ontario public directory at cpaontario.ca.
What is the 60-Day Fees-Matching Policy?
If you receive a written quote from any other licensed CPA firm for the same scope of work, we will match it within 60 days of engaging us. We have 100% trust in our lowest fees offering — which is why we offer Fees-Matching. This applies to all virtual clients across Ontario and Canada.
How much does virtual corporate tax filing cost?
Virtual T2 corporate tax filing starts from $400 per year, all-inclusive of HST. The fee includes the corporate return, a CRA compliance review, and the director's personal tax return at no extra cost. You receive the exact fee before any work begins — no hourly billing and no surprises.
What software do you use for virtual bookkeeping?
We work in QuickBooks Online and Xero, depending on what suits your business. Both let us keep your books current remotely, share financial statements through the portal, and give you live access to your numbers from anywhere in Canada.
How do I pay for your virtual services?
Payment is by Interac e-Transfer to info@gondaliyacpa.ca. Auto-deposit is enabled, so no security question is needed. You receive your exact flat fee upfront before any work starts.
Are your fees inclusive of HST?
Yes. All quoted fees include HST, so the number you are quoted is the number you pay. There is no hourly billing and no hidden cost added later.
Can you handle my GST/HST returns virtually?
Yes. We handle GST/HST registration, periodic returns and CRA correspondence entirely online. You upload your records to the portal and we prepare and file directly with the CRA, with input tax credits captured correctly.
Do you offer virtual payroll services?
Yes. We run full-service payroll remotely, including source deduction remittances, T4 slips, records of employment and WSIB reporting, so your team is paid and your CRA accounts stay compliant without an office visit.
My corporation is behind on its returns. Can you help virtually?
Yes. We handle catch-up and multi-year corporate tax filing entirely online. We rebuild the bookkeeping behind the missing years, file each late T2, reconcile your HST, and pursue penalty relief where the facts support it.
Can you incorporate my business online?
Yes. Federal and provincial incorporation is done fully online at a flat $35, with same-day processing available. It includes the NUANS name search and articles of incorporation, with no office visit required.
Will I always deal with the same CPA?
Yes. Your file is handled by our in-house licensed CPA team, not outsourced. You work with the same people throughout, so nobody has to re-learn your business each time.
How do virtual meetings work?
You choose what suits you — video call, phone or email. We are available weekdays, evenings and weekends to 9 PM, so you can meet around your own schedule rather than during office hours only.
Is my data secure on your portal?
Yes. All documents are shared through the encrypted TaxDome client portal. Your information is protected, access-controlled and handled in line with Canadian privacy standards, rather than sent by ordinary email.
What is the 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee?
For 2026 services, if you are not satisfied with our work, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. It reflects our confidence in the quality and value of our virtual CPA service.
Do you work with businesses in every industry?
We work with business clients across many sectors, including trades, e-commerce, professional services, real estate, trucking, restaurants and more. The virtual process is the same regardless of your industry.
Can you take over from my current accountant mid-year?
Yes. We can take over at any point in the year. We review what has been done so far, request your records and prior filings, and continue seamlessly so nothing falls through the cracks.
What records do you need to get started?
Typically your bank and credit card statements, prior tax returns, incorporation documents and any bookkeeping records you have. We give you a clear checklist at onboarding so you know exactly what to upload.
Do you provide financial statements with the tax filing?
Yes. Year-end financial statements are prepared as part of the corporate tax engagement and shared with you through the portal, so you have what you need for the CRA, lenders and your own records.
Can you help if the CRA is reviewing or auditing my business?
Yes. We represent you directly in CRA reviews and audits, handle the correspondence on your behalf, and prepare the responses. You do not deal with the CRA alone, and it is all managed virtually.
Do you file the director's personal tax return too?
Yes. With our virtual corporate tax package, the director's personal tax return is included at no extra cost, so the corporate and personal sides line up correctly.
How long does a virtual corporate tax filing take?
Once your records are uploaded and complete, most corporate returns are turned around promptly. Timing depends on the state of your bookkeeping, which we confirm with you upfront so you know what to expect.
Can you support US and cross-border tax matters?
Yes. We handle cross-border and non-resident situations, including US business tax filing, non-resident returns and departure returns, coordinated remotely for clients with international ties.
Do you offer ongoing monthly support or only annual filing?
Both. You can engage us just for the annual corporate filing, or for ongoing monthly bookkeeping with the year-end and tax filing included. The monthly plan keeps your numbers current all year.
How do I get started as a virtual client?
Book a free consultation or use our fee calculator for an exact quote. After you approve the fee and pay by Interac e-Transfer, you receive portal access the same day and we begin work right away.
