Every page in this section is written to the same standard: it opens with the block that exists nowhere else on the site — a threshold, a treaty article, a rule that applies to one group and not the one beside it — and it carries one worked example, worked through in full rather than a set of generalities.
Where a page needs a statutory threshold, a rate or a day-count, that figure is verified against the issuing authority before it ships. Where it cannot be verified for the year in question, the page states the mechanism and quotes no number, because a wrong threshold on a page like this is worse than no page at all. Every statutory page also carries the name of the person who reviewed it and the date they did.
Fees are fixed and agreed in writing before any work begins, and you review the finished work before it is filed. Documents move through a secure portal and you can meet us at any of our offices, so where you are makes no difference to how it works.

109 pages. India sits beside Canada and the US here, not underneath: its own form library, situations, treaty pages and pricing. Each one opens with the part that applies to that situation and nowhere else — a threshold, a treaty article, a filing that one group owes and the group beside it does not — and works one example through in full.
The fee is fixed and agreed in writing before any work begins, priced from the documents you send rather than estimated afterwards, and it does not move once accepted. You see the finished work and approve it before anything is filed.
A named adviser reviews every return and every information filing before it goes out, and the statutory pages on this site carry the name of the person who reviewed them and the date they did it. You approve the finished work yourself as the last step.
Send what you have — a return, a notice, a set of statements, in whatever state it is in — through the secure portal after the first call, and you get a written fixed fee back. Or call the 24-hour helpline on +1 (416) 619-0068 and we will tell you what is needed.
India's combination of NRI-specific rules, its own form library, and a treaty network used heavily by our client base warranted a dedicated section rather than folding it into the general cross-border situations, which are organised around Canada and the US by default.
Both — the inbound and outbound business pages serve India-based and foreign businesses with an India connection, while the situations and DTAA pages more often serve individual NRIs, and the two audiences frequently overlap in a single engagement.
If a file needs something this practice does not do, you hear that at the start rather than after a bill.
The heaviest exposure on a cross-border file is usually a disclosure form, not the tax. We identify which ones apply before a deadline turns into a penalty.
The engagement runs to submission and to the correspondence that follows it, including the queries that arrive months later.
Every page on this site and every file we deliver says which practitioner reviewed it — a person, not a team inbox.

Each of these carries its own guide, pricing pointers and FAQ.
A client resident in Canada sold a property inherited in India and had taken advice on each side separately, with the two sets of advice using different figures for cost and different dates for the gain. We fixed a single set of facts, established the cost that carried over on inheritance, dealt with the Indian deduction and the return that followed, and prepared the Canadian reporting of the same disposition. The engagement produced consistent filings in both countries, a credit claim in Canada supported by the Indian assessment, and a clear record of what each authority had been told and when.
A family moved back to India having held accounts, a pension and an investment portfolio abroad for over a decade. None of it had ever been reportable in India before. We established residency for the year of return, worked out which foreign income fell into charge given the transitional status, listed every holding that required disclosure and the correct description for each, and filed on that basis. The engagement produced a complete first-year disclosure, a credit claim for foreign tax on income taxed in both places, and a schedule the family reuses each year.
A software company in Canada had engaged engineers in India directly and was paying them gross by transfer, assuming Indian obligations belonged to the people receiving the money. We established what each relationship actually was, contractor or employee, identified the deduction and registration obligations that followed, and put deduction, deposit and quarterly reporting in place along with the certificates the workers need for their own returns. The work produced a compliant paying arrangement, corrected reporting for the periods already paid, and a written engagement template for the next hire.
A director drew fees from an Indian company and salary from a Canadian one, and each payer had deducted as though its payment were the only income. The treaty treats directors' fees differently from employment income, and the split of duties between the two countries mattered to both. We documented where the duties were performed, applied the relevant articles to each stream, corrected the deductions going forward and prepared both returns on a matching basis. The engagement produced a documented treaty position, recovered deductions taken in excess, and payer instructions that will hold for future years.
A long-term non-resident with interest income and a small rental had stopped filing in India after moving away, having been told a return was unnecessary because tax was deducted at source. The deductions had run well above the liability for years. We gathered the deduction records against the permanent account number, rebuilt the income for the years still open, and filed. The engagement produced filed returns, refunds for the open years, and a written note of the years closed beyond claim so the client understood exactly what had been lost and why.
A beneficiary in Canada needed to move funds from an inherited estate out of India, and the bank had returned the paperwork twice. The account category was wrong for the source of the funds and the certification did not describe the payment correctly. We corrected the account position, prepared the declaration and the accountant's certification on the right basis, and confirmed how the receipt would be treated in Canada. The engagement produced a completed transfer, a documented source of funds for both banks, and Canadian reporting consistent with what had been certified in India.
Interest on each is treated differently and the deduction at source follows the account rather than the person. Holding the wrong one for the purpose is a recurring and avoidable cost.
Read how this one runsWithholding on a sale by a non-resident is applied to the sale value rather than to the gain, so it routinely exceeds the tax due. A lower-deduction certificate obtained before completion avoids locking the difference up until a return is assessed.
Read how this one runsAll case studies — every published engagement in one place.
Strategy and compliance for income, assets and families spread across borders.
Cross-border tax for sellers shipping worldwide: marketplace withholding, foreign registrations and inventory nexus handled before they become audits.
Marketplaces withhold, remit and report in their own right, so the tax position of a single sale is decided by where the stock sat, where the buyer was and which platform collected — not by where the company is registered. We reconcile the platform's own filings against the returns before either is submitted.
