How we help
Tax problems we handle for Spruce Grove clients
The Canada Revenue Agency assesses and audits the same way across the country, so a Spruce Grove taxpayer has the same rights — and the same deadlines — as anyone else in Canada. We act on:
Local tax context
Tax in Alberta: what Spruce Grove clients should know
Alberta administers its OWN corporate income tax through Alberta Tax and Revenue Administration (TRA), so Alberta corporations can face both a CRA reassessment and a separate provincial one. Personal income tax remains CRA-administered.
Alberta has no provincial sales tax — only the federal 5% GST applies.
Alberta's separate corporate tax administration means a federal corporate reassessment often needs to be addressed with the province as well.
Where appeals are heard: The Tax Court of Canada sits in Calgary and Edmonton. If your dispute proceeds past the objection stage, that is where a Spruce Grove 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 Spruce Grove 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.
