Sam and his team helped me with filing my complicated corporate tax. He is very informative, and knowledgable and most importantly always available to answer your questions and concerns. He is very detailed and spent a lot of time preparing my tax file and fixing my previous accountant’s mistakes. I should also mention that his fee was very fair. Thank you so much Sam!

CRA audited me based on net worth audit. This audit lasted almost 2 years. I suffered emotionally and financially as a result. Bringing Sam and his team into the picture was the best decision that I have ever made. Sam followed a very unique strategy which led to dropping the taxes to my satisfaction. Thanks Sam for all your hard work.

Sam Faris helped me with the HST audit which involved building a new houses. CRA proposed to assess the houses that I built higher than it should be. Sam approach was convincing and knock down the assessment significantly. Thanks to Sam that I did not have to file objection and the issue was settled at the audit stage with the least cost.

Sam helped me with a very difficult tax issue which involved voluntary disclosure. He submitted a perfect package where CRA did not bother to ask any question. My package was approved from the first time with no issue at all. I must admit that after shopping around, Sam’s fee was the most reasonable fee among all the professionals including 2 tax law firms.

TORONTO TAX LAW CASE STUDY

Whether you’re faced with a personal tax audit or unfiled returns, you need tax accountants in Toronto that you can trust. At Faris CPA, we go above and beyond for our clients, ensuring their needs are met with a level of sophistication and attention to detail.

Our client had been audited by the CRA and their findings showed a significant amount of unreported income based on net worth. The result of the auditor’s assessment meant that there was a significant amount owing to the CRA.

Sam has a sophisticated approach and process for fighting unique cases with complex audits. He found countless mistakes made by the auditor.

When Sam appealed the auditor’s decision because of their mistakes, the errors were rectified. This resulted in the owed amount going from a very large sum to nothing. Our client was ecstatic.
