Deadline reminders: never meet a CRA date by accident again

Quick answer: Leave an email address and we will send a short reminder before each CRA deadline that matters to owner-managed businesses — slip season, GST/HST filing dates, instalment dates, and the year-end clocks. Free, one email per deadline, no newsletter attached, unsubscribe whenever you like. The same dates always live on our deadlines page and calendar feed if you prefer pull to push.

Never meet a CRA deadline by accident again: the 4 parts this covers — what you will get, exactly; why deadlines get missed by good operators; client deadlines are tracked personally; dates, tools and reminders
What this covers, at a glance.

What you will get, exactly

  • A short plain-text email a sensible interval before each broadly-applicable CRA deadline — what is due, who it applies to, and the link to the relevant guide.
  • Nothing else. No weekly newsletter, no promotions. The reminder list is the reminder list.

Your address is used for these reminders and nothing else — the privacy policy applies. Unsubscribe by replying “stop”.

Why deadlines get missed by good operators

Because the clocks are unrelated: slips follow the calendar year, the T2 follows your fiscal year, GST/HST follows your filing frequency, and instalments follow last year’s tax. Four clocks, none of them synchronized, none of them reminding you. This page makes at least the broadly-shared ones somebody else’s job to watch.

Client deadlines are tracked personally

These emails cover deadlines that apply broadly. Client corporations get the personal version — their own year-end clock, their instalment schedule, their filing frequency, watched by the firm as part of the engagement. That is the difference between a reminder list and an accountant.

A reminder helps only if the filing behind it is ready, which is the part someone tracking the deadlines with you covers.

Prefer a monthly summary over date-by-date alerts? The Tax Memo is the digest version.

General information, not tax advice. A letter’s own wording and dates govern — confirm anything that affects a decision on a free consult.

Common questions about deadline reminders

Is this really free, and what is the catch?+
Free, and the catch is transparent: some fraction of people who find the reminders useful eventually want the personal version, which is the paid engagement. The list itself stays free and stays only a list. Ask about your case →
Will you send my corporation’s specific deadlines?+
The free list covers broadly-applicable dates — it cannot know your fiscal year-end or filing frequency. Client corporations have their specific clocks tracked as part of the engagement. Ask about your case →
Can I get the dates without giving an email?+
Yes — the deadlines page lists them and the calendar (.ics) feed subscribes your own calendar app to them. The email exists for people who want a push instead of a pull. Ask about your case →
How do I unsubscribe?+
Reply “stop” to any reminder, and you are off the list. No link-hunting, no retention flow. Ask about your case →

Got a letter you’d rather not face alone?

Send it over before you respond. A CPA reads it, tells you what it actually asks, and what to send — free.
