Before finding Faris CPA, I have worked with 2 other companies, and they don’t come close to the amount of help that the firm has given me. They were a big help in filling outstanding tax returns under the Voluntary Disclosure Program and their fee was reasonable. Sam always goes the extra mile to make sure that all my questions are answered. I highly recommend this firm.

I assure you, you won’t regret choosing Faris CPA.

Case Study
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.
If you have not filed your Canadian tax returns, or if you have filed them and CRA believes that you have not reported all of your income, they may issue a new worth assessment. They take two financial snapshots, one at the start of the audit period and one at the end.
