Teplov CPA Complimentary Review

Accounting and tax shouldn’t be a black box.

Throughout the year, know what’s happening, what’s due, what needs your attention, and why.

Specialist CPA support for Canadian IT professionals, with accounting, tax, compliance and ongoing advice coordinated through a shared Client Workspace.

Alex Teplov, CPA

The problems in contractor books are rarely just data-entry errors. They are assumptions that were never checked.

See the work as it moves forward.

For ongoing engagements, the Client Workspace brings requests, owners, due dates, filings and decisions into one shared view. You can see what needs your input and what happens next.

Choose the model that matches the file

Common questions

Practical answers about starting an engagement. For tax topics, explore the resource guides.

How do you quote new engagements?

Pricing is confirmed after the Initial Review. We assess the condition of your records, outstanding filings and complexity before defining the scope and fees.

Do I need to be incorporated?

No. Teplov CPA works with sole proprietors filing T2125 schedules and incorporated IT contractors filing T2 corporate returns. If you are not incorporated yet, the decision can be reviewed before you add corporate complexity.

Which accounting software do you use?

We work in QuickBooks Online. Depending on the engagement, we work in your existing file or set one up for you.

Who handles the bookkeeping?

Depending on your engagement, we either perform the bookkeeping or review work completed by you or your internal team.
