Multi-jurisdictional tax and reporting requirements are becoming ever more prevalent as more Canadians are working internationally and foreign individuals and corporations are performing work in Canada. We have seen an explosive growth in this area of tax and we have grown alongside it by preparing hundreds of multi-jurisdictional returns in Canada and the United States each year.

We have the experience and knowledge to orchestrate your specific cross border tax filing requirements.
