Yes, it is that time of year again… some of us dread it, others get excited… it is tax season time! For individuals, this year’s tax filing deadline is May 1, 2023 (because April 30th falls on a Sunday) - and for self-employed individuals, your deadline is June 15, 2023.

More often than not, getting your books ready for taxes can be a bit of a panic, and there is often no time to sit down and do some ‘forward thinking’ about key business considerations. So, I thought this might be the perfect time to bring on fellow tax chick, Shalini Dharna, who describes herself as “a doctor for your finances”.

She is passionate about educating entrepreneurs on the “dos and do nots” of small business finances, especially when it comes to staying on CRAs nice list :) Together, we tackle: (1) how to prepare for tax season (8:20); (2) What makes your taxes complicated (i.e., should you contract out your tax filings? (15:05); and (3) some business considerations that are often missed (25:15).
