Registration
Mandatory once taxable supplies pass $30,000 in a single calendar quarter or across four consecutive quarters. Below that, voluntary registration is often still worth it if you have significant start-up spending to recover.
GST filing
GST, PST and HST filing in Calgary
Returns prepared and filed on your reporting cycle, with input tax credits documented well enough to survive a review.
Return preparation and filing
Monthly, quarterly or annual, prepared from reconciled books rather than estimated. Monthly and quarterly filers are due one month after the period ends; annual filers three months after the fiscal year end.
Input tax credits
Supported by documents that meet CRA's requirements, so a desk review is a nuisance rather than a problem.
Quick Method
Considered and either used or explicitly ruled out, rather than ignored.
Out-of-province sales
No PST in Alberta, but selling into British Columbia, Saskatchewan or Manitoba can create registration obligations there. Worth checking before it becomes a back-assessment.
Common questions
When is my GST return due?
Monthly and quarterly filers file and pay one month after the reporting period ends. Annual filers that are corporations file and pay three months after the fiscal year end.
What if I have not filed for several periods?
Catch-up filing is routine work. Where penalties and interest have accumulated, a taxpayer relief request may be worth making alongside.
