AFFORDABLE Cross-Border Tax Advisory Services in Ontario
The process of filing tax returns in two jurisdictions is not just about multiplying forms because of various reasons, such as a difference in tax years, residence criteria, and treaties between the United States and Canada that may result in double taxation or even failure to get credit due to noncompliance with the CRA and IRS requirements. Our cross-border tax advisory services cover all aspects related to taxation regulations in both the US and Canada.
The specialists from Beta Taxes provide tax advisory services for US-Canada residents and people or companies working or having some assets in both jurisdictions.

Why is Cross-Border Tax Advisory Important?
The US and Canada are separate countries with their own tax years, their own filing thresholds and requirements for determining taxable income. And both systems do not always cooperate. Without appropriate cross-border tax planning, there is a risk of being taxed twice on the same income, failure to make important disclosures such as FBAR and T1135, as well as unnecessary penalties arising from misunderstanding filing requirements.
Cross-border tax planning will help you stay compliant and keep more of your income. There are many possibilities to minimize your taxes with the help of foreign tax credits, treaty elections, and appropriate entity structuring provided by the Canada-US Tax Treaty. But everything must be done appropriately. Our CPAs will help you navigate the US-Canada tax system.

FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Beta Taxes’ cross-border tax advisory service include?
We offer US-Canada personal and corporate tax filing, non-resident and dual-status filing, FBAR/FATCA filing, cross-border business planning, and cross-border tax planning.
If I reside in one country and work in another, do I have to file taxes in both of them?
In most cases, yes. You will probably be required to file taxes in both countries, but there is a Canada-US Tax Treaty that can prevent double taxation of the same income.
What is FBAR and do I have to file it?
FBAR (Foreign Bank Account Report) is a filing requirement imposed by the US tax authorities on US citizens and residents who have foreign financial accounts, including Canadian bank and investment accounts.
I am a US citizen residing in Canada. Do I still need to file taxes in the US?
Yes. It is a requirement to file US tax returns as a US citizen or green card holder regardless of where you reside, along with the Canadian filing requirements.
Can you assist my Canadian company to enter the US market without running into cross-border tax issues?
Yes. We analyse the potential risks of establishing a permanent presence in the US and plan your operations in the US accordingly.
What If I have not filed my FBAR and FATCA disclosures in the past?
We will help you make a voluntary disclosure that will bring your filings up to date with less or no penalties incurred than if you were contacted first by the IRS.
Should Snowbirds be worried about their US tax residency status?
Yes. Too many days spent in the US may mean US tax residency as per the substantial presence test, and it affects Canadian citizens as well; we determine that and help to submit necessary treaty exemptions.
What is the departure tax and how is it applicable to me if I am moving to the USA?
Departure tax is applicable when you lose your Canadian residency and treat some of your assets as if they were sold at fair market value. We analyse your case before you move.
How does cross-border tax planning affect tax planning in general?
Cross-border issues are usually part of general tax planning, which is why we coordinate it with our corporate tax planning services.
Can you cooperate with my US tax preparer?
Yes. We often cooperate with US-based tax preparers to ensure your US and Canadian tax filings are coordinated.
