I'm behind on my taxes, can you get me caught up?
It's not uncommon for independent businesses to fall behind on their tax returns. If you have outstanding returns from prior years, we can help. We'll assist you in getting current with a manageable plan that optimizes tax savings to give you peace of mind.
Can you help me with incorporating my business?
Knowing which business structure is right for you is the first step in determining if you're paying the lowest tax possible. Your Tax Consultant along with an expert from Harvest Business Services will help you decide if you should incorporate. If you do, our expert team will take care of everything for you.
Do you do minute books?
If your business is incorporated, Minute Book compliance and maintenance is one of those obligations that often gets overlooked and slips through the cracks. Yet banks, lenders, investors and government agencies require current corporate minute books. Our Minute Book service powered by Harvest Business Services will handle the details, deadlines and paperwork - we'll get it done right and on time. We keep your Minute Books up to date and accurate each year when preparing and filing your taxes - and we offer a secure digital solution. This way, we protect the integrity of your business, and you can easily access your files whenever you want.
