When DIY Tax Prep Isn’t Enough: Proactive Strategies for Complex Financial Lives
While 90% of individuals can confidently manage their taxes 95% of the time, life’s complexities often demand specialized expertise. For the remaining 5% of situations—and the 10% of people facing them—Bhundhoo Tax steps in to navigate intricate financial landscapes, implement proactive strategies, and ensure you keep more of what you earn.
Complex Tax Scenarios We Handle
Even straightforward tax returns can become convoluted with life changes, investments, or business activities. Here are examples of situations where professional guidance is critical:
- Cryptocurrency & Decentralized Finance (DeFi):
Tracking crypto-to-crypto trades, staking rewards, or NFT transactions across wallets and exchanges requires meticulous record-keeping to avoid CRA discrepancies.
- Rental Property Ownership:
Managing depreciation schedules, deductible expenses (e.g., repairs vs. improvements), and navigating capital gains on property sales demands precision.
- Self-Employment & Side Hustles:
Juggling multiple income streams, home office deductions, and quarterly tax payments while avoiding audits calls for strategic planning.
- Business Ownership or Exit Strategies:
Structuring a business sale to minimize capital gains, transitioning to a corporation, or navigating shareholder agreements involves foresight.
- Tax-Efficient Retirement Planning:
Balancing RRSPs, TFSAs, and pension withdrawals to optimize tax brackets in retirement isn’t one-size-fits-all.
- Audit Defense:
Responding to CRA inquiries with confidence requires organized documentation and knowledge of procedural rights.
