Expanding across the border raises the same four questions every time: entity choice, permanent establishment risk, repatriation path and payroll — we answer them before the CRA or IRS does.
Foreign subsidiaries pull Canadian owners into the foreign affiliate system — FAPI can tax passive income as it accrues, surplus accounts decide how dividends come home, and the T1134 information return is due 10 months after year-end. Engagements are quoted as a fixed fee for a defined scope, and reviews of prior-year filings are included where earlier positions affect the current one.
Covers: The foreign corporation's US return with the related-party information reporting, filed on time so deductions and treaty positions are preserved rather than argued for.
What moves it up: Dormancy is not a discount. A foreign-owned US entity with no activity still owes the information return, and the penalty for missing it does not scale with turnover.
See this fee pageCovers: The Canadian corporate return with the cross-border schedules that travel with it — foreign income, payments to non-residents, and the foreign affiliate flags.
What moves it up: The number of related-party transactions. A single management fee is manageable; a dozen intercompany flows brings the related-party return and transfer-pricing support with it.
See this fee pageCovers: A written opinion on whether the activity creates a taxable presence, what would be attributable to it if it did, and what could be changed to alter the answer.
What moves it up: How many people and places are involved. One employee working from home is one analysis; a sales team, a warehouse and a contractor with signing authority is several.

Cross-Border Corporate Tax Advisor starts at a fixed fee quoted before any work begins. The quote is locked at the outset and does not change mid-engagement, and you review the deliverable with us before it is filed. Compare every plan on our transparent pricing page.
At minimum: prior-year returns and notices of assessment, your bank and credit-card statements for the fiscal period, payroll records if you have employees, and GST/HST filings. We send a checklist tailored to your situation after the first call to our 24-hour helpline.
Most engagements are completed within 3 to 5 business days once your documents are complete. Catch-up work covering multiple years takes longer, and we tell you the realistic timeline before you commit rather than after.
We respond on your behalf at no extra charge for any return we prepared. Every figure we file is supported by documentation retained in your file, which is what turns a CRA review from a crisis into correspondence. See how our CRA audit support works.
Yes. The late-filing penalty is 5% of the balance owing plus 1% of that balance for each full month the return is late, to a maximum of 12 months (CRA, 2025 tax year). Interest is what compounds, daily, on top. We prioritise catch-up work and, where eligible, file under the CRA's Voluntary Disclosures Program to reduce penalties.
Yes. We are a cloud-based practice serving every province and territory, so your location does not change the price or the service. Browse our coverage across Canada to find your city.
We work across construction, healthcare, e-commerce, professional services, restaurants, real estate, transportation, technology and non-profits, each with its own deduction profile and CRA scrutiny patterns. See all industries we serve.
Software applies the rules you told it about. It does not ask whether a treaty caps the withholding on that payment, whether the foreign credit was claimed in the right country, whether an information return was due on an account that earned nothing, or whether your related-party pricing is documented. Those are the questions that move the number on a cross-border file.
Our cross-border corporate tax advisor services include complete filing, compliance management, and strategic advice customized to Canadian tax laws.
You can start by calling our 24-hour helpline on +1 (416) 619-0068 or sending the form. We will review your files, provide a fixed quote, and start working immediately.
As a sequence, stopping at the first test that gives an answer: where you have a permanent home available; if in both or neither, where your centre of vital interests is; then habitual abode; then nationality; and if all of those tie, the two tax authorities decide by agreement. It is evidential rather than elective — you do not choose your treaty residence, you demonstrate it, which makes the record of homes, family and time the substance of the claim. See tie-breaking dual residency.
Yes, for almost anything it must do: file its returns, operate payroll, open a bank account, and act as a withholding agent on payments abroad. It is applied for on Form SS-4, and the part that stalls foreign owners is the responsible party — a real person with a US identification number is expected, and where none exists the application route and the supporting explanation both change. It is worth starting early because downstream registrations queue behind it. See EIN applications.

The two countries classify the vehicle differently, so relief that ought to apply frequently does not and the same profit can be taxed in both hands. The engagement examines whether the structure can be changed and what the change itself costs.
Read how this one runsMost notices are proposals rather than assessments, and they carry a response window that is shorter than it looks. The engagement reads what is actually being proposed, gathers the support, and replies inside the window with the position rather than a request for time.
Read how this one runsThe obligation sits on the payer, and the payer is liable for what it failed to withhold. Registration, the residence question and any treaty exemption are settled before the first pay run rather than after.
Read how this one runsState obligations are set by each state, and a treaty does not reach them. The review measures activity against each state's own thresholds and separates the states where registration is required from the ones where it is not.
Read how this one runsA dwelling left available is the tie the CRA weighs most heavily, and its treatment differs depending on whether it is rented at arm's length. The file settles the residence position first and the rental reporting second.
Read how this one runsA single employee with authority to conclude contracts can create a taxable presence for the whole company. The review tests what the person actually does against the treaty article, and where a presence exists, works out what profit is attributable to it.
Read how this one runsEmployment carried out in Canada is taxable here even where the employer and the bank account are not. The engagement establishes how many of the days were worked in Canada, applies the treaty employment article, and deals with the withholding the payer has already taken.
Read how this one runsThe two countries classify an LLC differently, so the credit relief that ought to apply frequently does not. The engagement looks at whether the structure can be changed, and where it cannot, at how to make the credit work.
Read how this one runsAll case studies — every published engagement in one place.
Strategy and compliance for income, assets and families spread across borders.
Related-party purchasing, customs value versus transfer price, and foreign-affiliate structures put trading businesses inside the s.247 documentation rules.
Goods crossing a border move the tax question from income to indirect: registration thresholds, place of supply, the customs value and the transfer price between related entities all have to agree with each other. When they do not, the adjustment arrives from two authorities at once and each one uses the other's number.
