Catch-up bookkeeping for Mississauga businesses
Mississauga has a little of everything: distributors and importers around Pearson and the 401, Heartland retailers, Meadowvale and Airport Corporate Centre tech firms, and a large number of home-based consultants in Erin Mills and Churchill Meadows. When a Mississauga file falls behind, it is usually because the business grew faster than the bookkeeping: more accounts, more processors, more GST/HST, and nobody reconciling any of it.
I’m Wajahat Ajmal, CPA, FCCA. T-Ledgers is a CPA-led accounting firm practising since 2020, and Mississauga is one of our two offices. If you would rather hand over a box of statements in person than upload them, you can book a meeting at 100 Matheson Blvd E, Suite 204, near Hurontario Street and Highway 403.
Mississauga backlogs we see often: import and wholesale companies with foreign-currency purchases and customs entries, logistics firms near the airport, incorporated IT consultants on contract to large Mississauga employers, and retailers whose Square, Shopify or Clover reports were never matched to the bank.

A typical Mississauga catch-up
An illustrative example (not a client story). A Mississauga wholesaler buys from overseas suppliers in US dollars and pays GST at the border through a customs broker. Two years later the books show bank transfers but no inventory, no foreign exchange and no import GST. We rebuild purchases from supplier invoices and customs statements, convert each at the right rate, claim the GST paid on imports as input tax credits where they’re still within the time limit, take a year-end inventory figure with the owner, and file the overdue GST/HST returns before the T2s, included in the per-year price, are filed.
Where Mississauga files usually fall behind. The pattern we see most is an importer or logistics company near Pearson whose volume grew faster than its bookkeeping: hundreds of supplier invoices in US dollars, customs and duty statements from a broker, and a bank feed that was never matched to them. Rebuilding that file means converting each foreign-currency payment at the rate on the day, separating duty (part of inventory cost) from the GST/HST paid at the border (an input tax credit), and lining up broker statements with the CBSA amounts. If you’re starting over after a messy year, the city’s free advisors at IDEA Mississauga (Mississauga Business Entrepreneur Centre) in Square One can help with the business plan side; we handle the numbers.
Retail and restaurant owners around Square One and Heartland bring a different backlog: point-of-sale reports, delivery-app payouts (Uber Eats, DoorDash) that arrive net of commissions, and cash deposits. We rebuild daily sales from the POS, gross up the delivery payouts, and reconcile cash to deposits before the GST/HST returns are filed.

Catch-up bookkeeping in Mississauga: FAQs
Can I drop off my records at your Mississauga office?
Yes, by appointment at 100 Matheson Blvd E, Suite 204. We scan what you bring and return the originals. Most clients upload statements instead, which is quicker.
How much does catch-up bookkeeping cost in Mississauga?
Corporate catch-up is priced per year, from $1,800 per year + HST/GST, including the bookkeeping, the GST/HST returns and the T2 filing for each year. Personal T1 returns are quoted separately, and you get a fixed quote after a free review.
My business imports goods. Can you catch up the GST on imports?
Yes. We rebuild import costs from customs broker statements and supplier invoices and claim the GST paid at the border as input tax credits where the time limit still allows.
Is there a CRA office in Mississauga I can visit?
The CRA says its offices have no walk-in counter service. Backlogs are resolved by phone, mail and online, and as your authorized representative we handle that contact for you.
Can you recover the GST/HST my Mississauga import company paid at the border?
Usually, yes. GST paid to the CBSA on commercial imports (and the provincial part of HST, which registrants usually self-assess on their GST/HST return) is generally claimable as an input tax credit by the importer, with the customs documents, within the time limit. We match the broker statements during the catch-up.
