Who You're Working With

About the Phelade Consult Team

The Phelade Consult team brings 17+ years of experience in accounting and financial services to every client. That background means the processes used on a much bigger file — proper reconciliation, real review before anything is filed, documentation that holds up — are the same ones applied here, without the overhead of a big-firm engagement.

Phelade Consult was built specifically for startups and small businesses: companies that want real accuracy but don't need a large firm's structure. That means our staff are the people who actually reconcile your books, review your return, and answer the phone when you call.

Questions

Have Any Questions? Here Are Some Answers

From CRA deadlines to what to bring to your first meeting, here's what business owners ask us most.
Image
What should I bring to our first meeting?
Bring photo ID, your business registration or incorporation documents, last year's tax return if you have one, and access to your current bookkeeping records (even a spreadsheet is fine). We'll tell you exactly what's needed for your situation when you book.
When are my CRA filing deadlines?
Personal returns are due April 30 (mid-June for self-employed, with any balance still due April 30). Corporate deadlines depend on your fiscal year-end and GST/HST filing frequency depends on your revenue — we track all of it for you once you're a client.
Do you work with brand-new startups?
Yes. Many of our clients are startups that need their books, tax registrations and payroll set up correctly from day one, not fixed after the fact.
How much does it cost to get started?
It depends on which services you need and your transaction volume. We don't publish a fixed price list — tell us about your business in a free consultation and we'll give you a clear, upfront quote.
Can I switch to you if I already have an accountant?
Yes. We can review your current filings and books, get anything outstanding caught up, and take over from there — most clients switch between filing periods with no disruption.
What's your background before starting Phelade Consult?
17+ years in the accounting and financial services profession. Phelade Consult applies that same rigor to small businesses, without a big firm's overhead.
Will I work directly with you, or get passed to someone else?
Directly with our staff. That's the point of a small, focused practice instead of a large firm.
