If you find that you’ve made a mistake on your Canadian tax return you are able to submit a T1adj form with CRA to make the changes. Once submitted CRA will assess the changes, make the required changes (in some cases they may want to verify documentation backup for the changes) and send you a Notice of Reassessment explaining the results of the reassessment. The form can be downloaded from CRA’s site here.

They are the best tax consultants and tax preparation company I have ever worked with! They are both very professional,... incredibly efficient and very warm and friendly. They always take as much time as a client needs to understand and be educated on their tax situation.read more

I met with Tony Theaker regarding cross-border tax issues. Not only was he extremely helpful but his knowledge and... easy demeanor immediately put me at ease. He is a true professional. Tony and I initially talked on the phone -- for which I was not charged -- and then met to continue the interview. He was fully prepared for our meeting with an outline and notes of my particular situation. He was able to provide advice and information that I would not have been able to find on my own. Subsequent to our meeting, he has been most generous in answering my questions by email. I believe Tony enjoys his work immensely which is reflected in his friendly and open approach to his clients. I could not recomment him more highly.read more

This is the place for you. It doesn’t matter who you are, what you do, or what you make...just do yourself a favour... and walk in this office. It was a few years ago for me, but I can vividly recall the sincere welcome I received, then the respectful inquiry regarding the nature of service I sought, followed by an immediate introduction to my new accountant. I was lucky enough to be assigned Mr. Ammo Baines. In the beginning it was just a meeting with another accountant, well-dressed, polite, professional and knowledgeable, but as our relationship went on, throughout 4 income tax seasons, my confusing past sources of income, a house purchase (with revenue suite), substantial medical expenses, intellectual property royalties, precious metal investing, divorce and finally, small corporate business assistance, Mr. Baines and all of Hutcheson’s associates accomplished bigger and better results each year, proactively seeking me out whenever timely action was required or important opportunities came up.I’ve now worked with many of the professionals at Hutcheson and can only conclude that it must be part of some charter for the organization’s leadership and business model to produce, encourage and nurture associates and partners of only the highest level; inspired, charismatic, diplomatic, and brilliant with all types of affairs (income tax, small business, corporate, financial advice or just planning)It was like no other professional service with which I’ve ever signed, a pleasure and relief for me and my familyread more

I can heartily recommend Hutcheson & Co for those with cross-border (US-Canada) tax issues. Phil and Doug are prompt,... professional and knowledgeable. I have complete confidence in their abilities and their filings are seamless and perfectly executed. If you're an American citizen residing in Canada, I strongly suggest having them handle both your American and Canadian filings.read more
