Start with the situation you are in
Most business owners come to us with one of three needs. Each one leads to a different kind of engagement.
“My year-end and taxes need handling.”
Corporate year-end, the T2 return and the owner’s pay decision, prepared from your books or your bookkeeper’s. Quoted once you tell us what the records look like.
Corporate tax and year-end“I want reliable monthly accounting.”
Books reconciled every month, sales tax and payroll filed on time, and the year-end prepared from records that are already clean.
Monthly accounting“I need better financial visibility and advice.”
A month-end close to a date, management reports you can read, cash forecasts and a CPA to think through pricing, hiring and financing.
Controller and CFO supportAccounting and tax for the whole business year
Four core services, bought on their own or together. Each page sets out what is included, what is not, and what affects the fee.
Corporate Tax and Year-End
T2 returns, year-end financial statements and GST/HST filings for incorporated businesses.
All corporate tax servicesBookkeeping and Payroll
Monthly books, payroll and source deductions, and catch-up work for years that fell behind.
All bookkeeping servicesOwners and their families can have their personal tax returns prepared alongside the corporate year-end, so salary, dividends and personal tax are planned together.
Businesses we work with most
Owner-managed businesses of many kinds. These sectors come up most often.
What working with us changes
The difference shows up in what you know, and when you know it.
Reviews from business owners
Reviews clients left on Google.
“Very knowledgeable — saved me tons in taxes by restructuring my group of companies. The best accountant I have worked with in the last 10 years, after switching from 3 different accounting firms.”
“Highly recommend. We switched last year for both our personal and small business taxes — easy and seamless. Responsive, knowledgeable, and quick.”
“Personal. Professional. Responsive. Plus he saved me a bundle!”
Choose the level of support you need
Three common starting points. You can move between them as the business grows.

- Year-end adjustments and financial statements
- T2 corporate return, e-filed

Monthly
Accounting and tax
You want the books, filings and year-end handled by one firm, with numbers you can rely on all year.
Bookkeeping from $300 a month
- Monthly reconciled books and a short report
- GST/HST, PST and payroll filings as needed
- Year-end and T2 prepared from clean records
Oversight
Financial management
You need reporting, forecasting and someone to think through decisions with, on top of the bookkeeping.

How starting with EverStone works
Four steps, and nothing is billed until you have agreed the scope and the fee.
Tell us what you need
A short quote request. A CPA replies by email, usually with a question or two about the records.
Scope and fixed fee
You receive what is included, what is not, and the fee, in writing. A video call is arranged if it helps.
Access and records
You authorize us with the CRA online. If you are switching accountants, we request the prior file for you.
