As a Chartered Accountant, ent® Chartered Professional Accountants has developed comprehensive experience in Not for Profit audits.

With this expertise, we can help you set up and maintain your non-profit organization's tax-exempt status by handling all the CRA reporting for you. Each year the CRA requires most tax-exempt organizations to submit the proper details.

The CRA uses specific revenue and expense classifications to determine if your organization will retain its tax-exempt status. So it's imperative that you build your accounting system around these revenue and expense classifications.

We will:

• Review your financial statements
• Design, install and maintain your Accounting System
• Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly payroll preparation
• Payroll Tax Preparation and Deposits
• Provide training for your accounting personnel
• Complete and file your non-profit status application
• Provide training for your board on non-profit financial statement usage and effective budgeting practices
• Prepare and file the necessary tax forms
• Prepare your initial start-up documentation
• Churches: We prepare the pastoral housing allowance and other required benefit documentation to meet the complex dual status of ministers
