What is not included

What we do not do.

We keep books. We do not file corporate or personal tax returns, prepare audited or reviewed financial statements, or give tax advice.

That work belongs with a CPA, and we work alongside yours. If you need one, we can suggest accounting firms in the Fraser Valley that know farms, carriers and family businesses. You keep the books with us and the tax with them, and each side knows what the other has done.

Let's see if we fit.

Twenty minutes, no slides. You tell us how the business runs; we tell you plainly whether we are the right bookkeeper for it.
