Coming This Month: Changes to Business Registration Online

More changes are coming to how your clients will access Business Registration Online (BRO). Starting July 14, 2026, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) your business clients will only be able to access BRO through their CRA account. As usual, it’s the taxpayer who is responsible for on time remittances and the burden of proof in an increasingly digital relationship with CRA. Here’s what you need to know:

According to Industry Canada, as of December 2012, there were nearly 1.2 million small businesses in Canada (businesses with at least one employee on payroll). But many don’t make it—even though they were profitable at the time of closure. Tax and business services specialists can help these businesses survive.

After an eventful two weeks in global politics and economics, the theme for the 2017 Distinguished Advisor Conference (DAC) appears to be squarely on point: Financial Advice at the Crossroads of Change.

If your goal is to shore up your corporate tax preparation knowledge on preparing returns for professional corporations, you will want to enrol in this new online certificate course from Knowledge Bureau, which has a special focus on the needs of clients who are financial advisors and medical practitioners.

Knowledge Bureau’s Distinguished Advisor Workshop series for January 2017, focused on advanced personal tax update finished in Winnipeg, Manitoba on January 25th.  The team at Knowledge Bureau would like to extend our gratitude to all our students who attended - your participation makes this a success.
