    Great video and timely as I'm working on my corporate filing. For the at-home expense calculation (for a shared personal and business space) do you have to factor in the square footage or is it just the % time used per day? There aren't a lot of good examples of both calculations out there and I find this part the most consuming to gather all the items.

    Thanks very much for all of this helpful content! I was wondering if you had any videos on getting paramedical benefits like dental, physiotherapy, etc paid for by your business. Or many content on self-insuring? I'm not sure if that's just an american thing, but it's very interesting and seems like a way to get a lot more from the cost of insurance. Also, I'm wondering if there would be a way to claim a spa membership or ski pass as a business expense. I do a lot of networking on the chairlifts!
    Thanks in advance for any guidance you're able to provide :)

I have to obtain a new license for each client obtained. If each annual license cost 10k is it possible lowering my AGI to a point that I don’t have to pay federal or state tax?

    Thanks for such informative information. Many of my friends that hired accountants do no have any of this knowledge nor do they suggest these methods. One friend even had to tell their accountant how to deduct. Is this normal in the industry? That accountants don't necessary advise unless you ask them to?

    • @GabrielleTalksMoney
      @GabrielleTalksMoney  2 роки тому +2

      Note that not all Accountants are CPAs nor tax experts! It's important to ask them some questions regarding their background and designation before going with them - a good tax CPA will help you take all the necessary deductions!

      It needs to have been incurred after your business commencement date per CRA: www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/businesses/topics/sole-proprietorships-partnerships/business-expenses/business-start-costs.html

    Hello Gabrielle I have a question. Maybe you could explain on a video. What happens if I sold some Crypto that currently is on lost to have a taxable event (in my favor) from this year then I immediately buy the same crypto at the same price and simply hold. So my question is. This would be considered a lost for the current year ? And the new purchase as long as I hold it will be considered until the moment I sell again?. Thank u so much

    • @GabrielleTalksMoney
      @GabrielleTalksMoney  2 роки тому +1

      You would need to look into the superficial loss rules which prevent you from realizing the losses if you buy back the same capital property within 30 days - check out cra guidance: www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-return/completing-a-tax-return/personal-income/line-12700-capital-gains/capital-losses-deductions/what-a-superficial-loss.html

I started this business when I was back in India. Can I transfer this business to Canada, holding a student visa, whilst I retain the employees back in India to operate the account?

    • @GabrielleTalksMoney
      @GabrielleTalksMoney  2 роки тому +1

      Depends on what you mean - if you are a sole proprietor operating under your name, you don't need to register your business. However, if you are operating under a different name or want the benefits of incorporation, you would need to register your business.
