Payroll Processing
What it is

What is payroll processing?

Payroll in Canada is more than transferring money to employees. It involves calculating gross pay, deducting CPP, EI, and federal/provincial income tax at the right rates, remitting those source deductions to the CRA by their due dates, issuing pay stubs, and reconciling everything at year-end with T4 and T4A slips.

Mistakes are expensive

Late remittances

trigger penalties that compound monthly.

Wrong deductions

create employee disputes and CRA audits.

Missing T4 filings

cause administrative headaches that follow you for years.

DIY almost always

costs more than getting professional help.

With payroll, doing it yourself almost always costs more than getting professional help.

What we do

Payroll Processing services

Payroll covers more than running pay cycles. Here is the full scope of what we handle, from setup to year-end T4s and everything in between.

  1. Weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly payroll cycles

    Calculated, processed, and direct-deposited to your team on schedule.

  2. Source deduction remittances

    CPP, EI, and income tax remitted to the CRA on the correct schedule (monthly, quarterly, or accelerated), with PD7A statements reconciled and filed.

  3. Worker's Compensation premiums

    Worker's Compensation premiums processed on the same frequency as your CRA source deductions, with the right rates applied based on your industry and provincial board.

  4. T4 and T4A slips

    Year-end slips prepared, distributed to employees, and filed with the CRA before the February deadline, with the T4 Summary submitted to close the year.

  5. Records of Employment (ROE)

    Issued promptly when employees leave, with correct codes to avoid Service Canada delays.

  6. Initial payroll setup

    Business profile, employee onboarding, vacation pay rules, statutory holidays, taxable benefits, and CRA payroll account configured from the start so the cycles run cleanly.

Who

Who this is for

Outsourcing payroll makes sense for businesses at different stages and structures. The profiles below cover the situations we work with most often.

Small to medium incorporated businesses

Anywhere from 1 employee (often the owner on T4) to 50 employees with regular payroll cycles.

Owners paying themselves through salary

Coordinated with our tax planning work to make sure salary vs dividend mix is optimized year by year.

Businesses with complex payroll

Multi-province payrolls, contractor classifications, taxable benefits, or commission structures that need professional handling.

Businesses needing catchup payroll

Missed remittances, late T4 filings, payroll periods that were never properly run, we sort out backlogs, file what's missing, and bring you back into compliance with the CRA before the penalties compound.

Owners who want payroll off their plate

Payroll you can rely on, pricing you understand, and real humans answering when something doesn't look right. Most of our clients haven't thought about a paystub in years, that's the goal.
