Accounting and tax for Canadian doctors
Maple Consults Services Inc. works with physicians across Canada: bookkeeping for your professional corporation, corporate and personal returns that agree with each other, and a plan for how money leaves the corporation.
We work with doctors, not with everybody. That means the questions you ask have already been answered several times this month.
Three things, done properly, for physicians at any stage of practice. Everything is quoted as a flat fee after a short conversation, so a question never arrives as a line on an invoice.
For doctors going incorporated
Whether to incorporate, when, and how the corporation should be built. A medicine professional corporation has rules that a normal company does not, and the decisions made in month one follow you for years.
For incorporated physicians
Your books kept monthly rather than rebuilt in a panic at year end, financial statements prepared for filing, and a T2 corporate return that reflects how you actually get paid.
For every stage
Personal returns for you and your family, filed alongside the corporation so the two tell the same story. Plus the decisions in between: how much salary, how much dividend, what stays in the corporation.
A general practice accountant sees one or two doctors a year. The specifics get missed, and the specifics are where the money is.
Counted from today. Your corporate dates depend on your fiscal year end.
Send us your year end date and we will map your full filing year, corporate and personal, on one page.
Four steps from first call to filed return. Most physicians are fully onboarded within two weeks.
Twenty minutes on your practice, your structure, and what is worrying you. No sales script.
A flat fee and a clear scope by email within one business day. Nothing begins until you accept.
We take over the books, clear anything outstanding, and put the filing calendar in place.
Monthly bookkeeping, filings on time, and a compensation review before year end rather than after.
