History

CTS & Associates was started by Anthony H. Craig C.A. in 1988. Tony had spent 10 years as an Auditor with Revenue Canada, Sales Tax before deciding to start his consulting firm. Prior to leaving Revenue Canada Tony had been part of a teaching team providing instruction on new taxation matters to other auditors.

Since starting CTS Tony has assembled a team of professionals who are expert at identifying refund opportunities in several, varied areas. These include Research & Development, GST, PST, Employer health Tax, Payroll Taxes, VAT, Duty, Freight and Brokerage. We also perform system reviews in Workplace Safety & Insurance and Property taxes.

All reviews are conducted in a timely, cost effective and unobtrusive manner. Your staff time is never compromised. Our people do all the work.

It is irrelevant whether or not you have been reviewed by another firm. We pride ourselves on our ability to follow our competition into clients and still come up with refunds that have gone undetected. Similarly we are not discouraged if you have just been audited by a Government Dept. Government mandates are traditionally to look for underpayments not overpayments.

If there are refunds available to you CTS is the company that will be able to ensure that you recover them. We know where to look and what to look for. Although we pride ourselves on our ability to detect errors and missed credits that occur due to oversight our primary strength is being knowledgeable in the key areas and issues in principle that are generally being missed by most companies that we review.

We serve as a complement to both your internal Accounting staff and your external Accounting firm. Daily Accounting functions, Financial Statement preparation and Income Tax planning are the usual mandates of the other Accounting professionals whom you depend upon. We do not get involved in these areas. Our expertise lies in being specifically focused on the current and changing areas of refund opportunities that are continually evolving in our various other systems of taxation. Our commitment to this focus ensures that you as our client would be ensured of taking advantage of all the potential refund/credit opportunities available to you. Our experience extends to all Business sectors.

Another advantage of working with us is that once you become aware of the varied areas of refund opportunity you would be able to apply this knowledge to your future transactions.

We also offer a continual year round hot line tax service. If you have any questions after our review or at any time thereafter as our client you are entitled to call us.

We look forward to working with you.
