What’s new for your 2026 personal tax return
Every year brings changes, and small ones can cost or save you real money. For the 2025 tax year (filed in 2026), we make sure your return reflects the latest CRA rules — updated federal and BC tax brackets and the basic personal amount, current TFSA and RRSP contribution room, the First Home Savings Account (FHSA) for eligible buyers, and any changes to credits like the Canada Workers Benefit, the Canada Caregiver Credit and climate action payments.
If you had a big life change — a new baby, a home purchase, a move for work, a marriage or separation, or a first year of self-employment — those often unlock deductions and credits people miss. We ask the right questions so nothing eligible is left on the table, and we plan ahead so next year’s return is even better.

If you run a business from home or rent out part of it, one number deserves attention long before you sell: the principal residence exemption. It usually survives a home office intact, but three conditions decide it — the principal residence exemption and business use of a home sets them out, along with what has to be reported on Schedule 3 and Form T2091(IND).
A clean switch, with personal and business tax finally coordinated
The situation: An owner ready to switch accountants needed both her personal and small-business taxes handled — and handled together, rather than by two parties who never talk to each other.
What we did: We managed the handover from the prior accountant so it took very little of her time, then coordinated the personal (T1) and small-business returns as one picture — including how salary and dividends interact — so the overall result is optimized.
★★★★★“Highly recommend working with Sunny. We switched to him last year for both our personal and small-business taxes — responsive, knowledgeable and quick.”

Personal and corporate returns interact more than most owners expect — salary paid to a spouse lands on their T1, home office costs claimed through a corporation follow a different mechanism than the employee claim, and if the personal balance is more than you can pay at once, CRA payment arrangements set out the options.
Personal tax for incorporated owners differs by province and by circumstance. Location pages cover those differences for Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Langley, Mission, Surrey, Maple Ridge, Aldergrove, Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa.
