How we help
Tax problems we handle for Drummondville clients
The Canada Revenue Agency assesses and audits the same way across the country, so a Drummondville taxpayer has the same rights — and the same deadlines — as anyone else in Canada. We act on:
Local tax context
Tax in Quebec: what Drummondville clients should know
Quebec is unique: residents file a separate Quebec provincial return and Revenu Québec administers Quebec income tax, so a Quebec taxpayer can face both the CRA and Revenu Québec. We coordinate with Quebec counsel where a matter is purely provincial.
Quebec applies the federal GST plus the separate Quebec Sales Tax (QST), which Revenu Québec administers.
Because two tax authorities are involved, a federal reassessment in Quebec often has a Revenu Québec counterpart — the two need to be managed together.
Where appeals are heard: The Tax Court of Canada sits in Montreal and Quebec City for federal tax appeals. If your dispute proceeds past the objection stage, that is where a Drummondville appeal would be heard — and we appear there.
Why a tax lawyer
Why bring in tax counsel
A tax lawyer can do two things an accountant generally cannot: protect your communications under solicitor-client privilege, and represent you at the Tax Court of Canada. When a CRA matter moves from filing into a dispute, a privileged question, or litigation, that distinction matters. We frequently work alongside a client’s existing accountant as co-counsel — see our work with accountants page.
If you are in Drummondville and dealing with the CRA — an audit letter, a reassessment, frozen funds, or years of unfiled returns — the earliest advice usually preserves the most options.
