MYCPE ONE, a global platform serving CPA and accounting firms with continuing education, offshore staffing, and practice growth solutions, has announced expanded tax preparation service support for Canadian CPA and accounting firms. The offering gives firms access to dedicated offshore tax professionals trained in Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) requirements and Canadian tax software, so firms can manage T1 and T2 workloads without adding local headcount.
The rollout comes ahead of the 2027 filing season, as many Canadian practices continue to deal with a shortage of qualified tax staff, rising salary costs, and tight deadlines. With personal returns due April 30, self-employed returns due June 15, and corporate T2 returns due six months after each client’s fiscal year-end, firms often have little room to absorb extra volume. MYCPE ONE’s model is designed to give them that room.
Full-Cycle Support for Canadian Tax Returns
MYCPE ONE’s offshore tax teams handle preparation work from document intake to review-ready drafts. Core services include:
- Personal tax preparation (T1): Data entry, deductions, credits, and RRSP and TFSA adjustments
- Corporate tax preparation (T2): Year-end returns for small and mid-sized business clients
- Self-employed and partnership returns: T2125 business income and T5013 partnership filings
- Sales tax filings: GST/HST and PST reconciliations and returns
- Payroll tax support: T4 slips and monthly or quarterly CRA remittance reports
- Document management: Collecting T4s, T5s, T3s, RRSP slips, prior-year returns, and CRA Notices of Assessment, then organizing them by return type
Every return is prepared as a draft for the firm’s senior reviewer. Canadian firms keep full control over final review, sign-off, and client relationships, while MYCPE ONE handles the preparation volume behind the scenes.
Built Around the Software Canadian Firms Already Use
A common barrier to outsourcing tax work is software fit. MYCPE ONE’s professionals are trained in TaxCycle, CaseWare, ProFile, CCH iFirm, DT Max, and Cantax, the platforms most widely used by Canadian accounting firms. Staff work inside each firm’s existing setup, which removes the need to change tools or retrain internal teams.
Every MYCPE ONE accountant is also trained to work with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, and Gemini. This helps firms automate repetitive tasks and improve turnaround on routine returns.
Security and Compliance at the Core
Handling taxpayer data offshore requires strict controls. MYCPE ONE’s tax preparation engagements follow CRA filing standards, PIPEDA data protection requirements, and Canadian professional conduct guidelines.
The company holds SOC 2 Type I and Type II attestation and ISO 27001:2022 certification. It also uses biometric access controls across its delivery centres and reports zero data breaches in more than 10 years of operations. All collaboration runs through secure, encrypted cloud platforms.
Flexible Roles for Every Stage of the Tax Cycle
Firms can hire full-time or part-time professionals across six tax roles:
- Tax Preparer for T1, T2, T2125, and T5013 returns
- Tax Accountant for provisions, reconciliations, and tax-ready financials under Canadian GAAP
- Tax Reviewer for accuracy checks before returns go out
- Tax Manager for workflow oversight and deadline tracking
- Tax Analyst for research on Canadian tax legislation
- Tax Director for corporate tax planning and compliance leadership
Talent is available from three hubs: India, the Philippines, and Mexico. Firms can choose based on budget, communication style, and time zone needs. Teams can scale up for peak season and scale down afterward, with no long-term commitments.
Compared with hiring onshore, Canadian firms can save up to 60% on staffing costs, with pricing starting at CA$15 per hour.
Fast, Low-Risk Onboarding
Most firms are fully onboarded within two to four weeks through a three-step process:
- Sign-up: Introductory call, candidate interviews, and software proficiency testing
- Onboarding: IT setup and staff orientation
- Set-up: Staff begin work, followed by initial training and continuous review
To reduce risk for first-time users, MYCPE ONE offers a two-week free look-in period with no obligation. Firms that also need year-round support can combine tax preparation with bookkeeping under a single engagement.
The service is available to CPA and accounting firms across Canada, including Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa, and Brampton.
