๐Ÿ“ง Email: [email protected]


Important Notice About Voicemails & Emails

Due to the very high volume and complexity of international tax matters we handle, there are times when we may be unable to accept new clients. We will try our best to get back to you.

If you do not receive a reply to your voicemail or email, it is nothing personal โ€” it simply means:

  • We are currently unable to take on new engagements, or
  • Our advisors are fully committed to existing client files.

We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding.


Initial Call Policy โ€” 5 Minutes Complimentary (Booked in Advance)

We provide a 5-minute complimentary introductory call, strictly by appointment only.
All calls must be pre-scheduled with a specific day and time before an advisor can speak with you.

This brief call is intended to determine:

  • Whether your matter fits within our scope
  • Whether we have capacity to take on your file
  • What documents and next steps are required

No tax advice is provided during this complimentary call.


15-Minute Advisory Call โ€” $125 (Booked in Advance)

Clients who wish to discuss more details before booking a full consultation may schedule a 15-minute paid advisory call for $125.

This call may include:

  • High-level tax direction
  • Initial review of your situation
  • Preliminary assessment of issues and risks
  • Clarification of your cross-border tax concerns

This call must be scheduled in advance, and payment is required at the time of booking to confirm the appointment.

For all international and cross-border tax matters, we strongly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation at your desired Toronto Tax Consulting location. This allows your advisor to:

  • Review your documents
  • Understand your full fact pattern
  • Provide accurate, compliant tax advice
  • Outline your engagement plan

There is a fee for the initial in-person consultation.

All ongoing meetings for active files are by appointment only.


Response Time

Please allow up to 10 business days for a response due to demand.
If you do not hear back, it simply means we are unable to accept new clients at that time.

    Why Individuals and Businesses Turn to Toronto Tax Consulting for Professional Tax Advice?

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    At Toronto Tax Consulting, we understand that tax legislation is constantly evolving, with layers of complexity that can quickly overwhelm even the most financially savvy individuals and corporate clients. Whether youโ€™re a private individual, a Canadian business expanding internationally, or a cross-border taxpayer, navigating todayโ€™s tax landscape requires more than just filing a returnโ€”it demands proactive strategy, legal precision, and global insight.

    Our firm is regularly sought out by clients in Downtown Toronto and across international borders who need answers to questions that even AI tools struggle to resolve without expert human interpretation. Below are common scenarios where our licensed tax advisors, international tax accountants, and cross-border tax planners step in to provide clear, authoritative solutions:


    When You Need Expert Guidance โ€” Examples We See Daily:

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto
    • Inheritance of Wealth Domestically or Internationally
      Youโ€™ve inherited a large sum or complex assets from a foreign estateโ€”what are your reporting obligations under Canadian tax law or international treaties?

    • Rising Complexity in Personal Finances
      Your income sources have diversified or your asset structure has evolved. You’re unsure how this affects your overall tax liability or future tax planning.

    • Comprehensive Tax Return Preparation
      You require accurate and compliant preparation of personal, corporate, trust, international, or non-resident tax returns, including supporting forms and schedules.

    • Business Structure Changes
      You’re converting from a sole proprietorship to a corporation or entering a partnership and need guidance on the tax consequences and advantages.

    • New Ventures & Franchises
      Starting a business or purchasing a franchise? You need up-front tax planning and structuring advice to avoid costly errors.

    • Financial Planning Alignment
      You want to align your long-term financial planning with strategic tax optimizationโ€”across borders, portfolios, or family structures.

    • Non-Residents Doing Business in Canada
      Whether you’re a foreign corporation or individual conducting business in Canada, we handle non-resident tax filings, withholding tax issues, and CRA compliance.

    • First-Time Real Estate Investment
      Youโ€™re purchasing your first rental property and donโ€™t know the tax implications, deductible expenses, or how to report it.

    • International Tax Representation
      Youโ€™re facing cross-border tax issues and need an international tax accountant to liaise with CRA, IRS, or another foreign tax authority.

    • U.S. Citizens in Canada with Unfiled Returns
      You’re a U.S. citizen living in Canada who hasnโ€™t filed Form 1040, FBAR, or FATCA-related forms. You may qualify for IRS Streamlined Proceduresโ€”we can help.

    • Canadians Moving to the U.S.
      Whether youโ€™re relocating temporarily or permanently, cross-border tax planning and residency determination are critical.

    • Foreign Investment and Real Estate
      Purchasing U.S. or foreign property? We advise on foreign reporting requirements, Form T1135, and ownership structures to minimize tax exposure.

    • Tax Liabilities You Can’t Afford
      You owe back taxes in Canada or another country. We negotiate voluntary disclosures, payment plans, and provide legal representation.

    • Complex Investment Portfolios
      Youโ€™re adding derivatives, foreign securities, crypto assets, or private equityโ€”we handle tax characterization and compliance.

    • Tax Questions AI Canโ€™t Answer
      Youโ€™ve searched online or used AI tools but still canโ€™t get a reliable answerโ€”this is when you call us.

    • International Expansion
      Your Canadian business is entering U.S. or global markets. You need cross-border structuring, transfer pricing guidance, and tax treaty planning.

    • CRA or Foreign Tax Authority Contact
      Youโ€™ve received threatening CRA letters or foreign tax notices. We act as your representative, offering protection and strategic response.

    • Corporate Tax Advice and Returns
      From Canadian-controlled private corporations (CCPCs) to non-resident entities, we provide full-service corporate tax return preparation and planning.

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ”Ž Brought to you by Toronto Tax Consulting โ€” Your Trusted International Tax Accountant in Downtown Toronto

    As tax authorities worldwide enhance enforcement and collaboration, the landscape for cross-border taxpayers in 2025 has become increasingly complex. Toronto Tax Consulting is your go-to firm for navigating international tax obligations across 40+ jurisdictions, including Canada, the U.S., G20 countries, and global financial hubs.


    ๐Ÿ‘ค Individual & Dual Citizenship Tax Issues

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Dual Tax Residency Conflicts
    Conflicting residency under Canadian law vs. other jurisdictions (e.g., U.S., India, Germany). We apply OECD Model Treaty Article IV tie-breaker rules to prevent double taxation.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Canadian Departure Tax
    Triggered under Income Tax Act s.128.1(4) when leaving Canada. Applies to deemed dispositions of worldwide assets. Planning can defer or eliminate departure tax.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Worldwide Income & Foreign Disclosure (T1135)
    Canadian residents must report all global income and disclose foreign assets over CAD $100,000 via Form T1135. Penalties are severe for late or missed filings.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Foreign Pension Reporting & Treaty Relief
    RRSPs, 401(k)s, Roth IRAs, UK SIPPs, and EU pensions must be reported correctly. Improper reporting often leads to tax duplication โ€” we help coordinate relief under tax treaties.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Late or Missed Forms (FBAR, 8938, 3520, 5471)
    Non-compliance with foreign asset forms can trigger fines of $10,000โ€“$50,000+. We guide clients through Voluntary Disclosure and Streamlined Procedures.


    ๐Ÿข Corporate & Cross-Border Business Tax Issues

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Controlled Foreign Corporation (CFC) & FAPI/GILTI
    Owners of foreign corporations may be subject to GILTI (U.S.) or FAPI (Canada) anti-deferral rules. We ensure compliance and advise on efficient ownership structures.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Transfer Pricing & OECD Compliance
    CRA and IRS now demand OECD-compliant documentation for all intercompany transactions. Increased audits in 2025 focus on intellectual property, services, and royalties.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Digital Services Tax (DST)
    Countries like Canada, France, and Italy now impose a 1โ€“3% DST on digital platforms, SaaS, and consulting services. We plan for DST exposure in both treaty and non-treaty jurisdictions.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ U.S. LLCs Owned by Canadians
    Misuse of U.S. LLCs leads to CRA double taxation due to classification mismatch. We restructure with check-the-box elections, partnerships, or Canadian corporations.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Global Holding Company Structures
    Choosing the right jurisdiction for your parent entity can reduce withholding tax, reporting burden, and CFC risk. We build tax-efficient cross-border structures using treaty networks.


    ๐Ÿ  Real Estate, Trusts & Estate Planning Across Borders

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Foreign Real Estate Holdings
    U.S. vacation homes, EU rentals, and overseas investments require careful coordination of FIRPTA, local capital gains tax, and Canadian reporting.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Foreign Trusts (T1135, 3520, 3520-A)
    Canadian taxpayers who are settlors, trustees, or beneficiaries of offshore trusts must file multiple disclosures. We help reduce audit risk and manage CRA/IRS compliance.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Inheritance of Foreign Assets
    Receiving foreign inheritance can trigger attribution rules, trust look-through provisions, or CRA T1135 obligations. Advance planning is essential.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Cross-Border Estate Planning
    We prepare dual wills and trust strategies for U.S. and EU citizens with Canadian ties. Coordination with OECD estate tax treaties ensures you avoid probate delays and double estate tax.


    ๐Ÿ’ป Remote Work, Digital Nomads & Immigration Triggers

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Remote Work & Permanent Establishment (PE)
    Working for a foreign company from Canada can create PE risk and expose foreign employers to Canadian taxes. We assess treaty thresholds and employer-side obligations.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Digital Nomad Visa Risks
    Residency mismatches may arise from digital nomad programs (Spain, Portugal, Thailand, UAE), leading to complex tax residency disputes and dual filing requirements.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Immigration & Tax Residency
    Tax residency is not determined by immigration status alone. We prepare NR73/NR74 forms and provide entry/exit planning for Canadian arrivals and departures.


    ๐Ÿ” Compliance, Enforcement & Penalties in 2025

    International Tax Accountant Downtown Toronto

    ๐Ÿ“Œ OECD CRS & FATCA Audits
    Automatic exchange of financial data across over 100 countries means hidden offshore accounts are now traceable. CRA and IRS use AI to match banking data with reported income.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Aggressive CRA & IRS Audit Activity
    Taxpayers with foreign property, trusts, crypto, or international corporations are increasingly targeted. We support audit defense and disclosure rectification.

    ๐Ÿ“Œ Global Penalty Increases for Non-Compliance
    Countries like France, Germany, Australia, Mexico, and others have raised fines for missed foreign filings โ€” sometimes up to 50% of undeclared asset value.
