Payroll for Oakville employers
Oakville payroll is often an owner-manager question as much as an employee one. Many clients are incorporated professionals and family companies deciding between salary and dividends, paying a spouse or adult child, and adding a few staff to a practice or office.
I’m Wajahat Ajmal, CPA, FCCA. T-Ledgers is a CPA-led accounting firm practising since 2020. Our nearest office is in Mississauga, by appointment.
Oakville payroll situations we handle
← Swipe to compare →
| Local situation | How we handle it | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Salary or dividends for the owner | Salary goes through payroll with CPP and a T4; dividends go on a T5. We model both before year-end so your corporation and your T1 work together. | Income Tax Regulations s.201 |
| Paying family members | Family members on payroll must be paid a reasonable amount for work actually done. We document roles and hours before the first pay. | Income Tax Act s.67 |
| Health and professional practices | Clinics and practices often mix employees and associates. We check each role against the CRA employee tests. | CRA guide RC4110 |
| Town of Oakville licences | Some Oakville businesses need a Town licence. The renewal is booked when paid so it is never missed. | Town of Oakville business licence |
Law: Income Tax Act s.67 (reasonableness of expenses); Income Tax Regulations s.201 (T5 information returns).
How we work with Oakville clients
Oakville payroll often starts with the owner. An incorporated professional or family company may pay the owner a salary, a spouse for bookkeeping or reception, and a small team of staff. Each of those decisions affects the corporation’s tax, the family’s personal tax and CPP, so we look at them together before the first pay run of the year.
Once the plan is set, we run pay in QuickBooks Online Payroll or Wagepoint, remit to the CRA on schedule, file T4s and T5s, and keep the paperwork that supports family salaries. For practices and offices with associates, we document why each person is on payroll or on contract.
Federal and Ontario payroll rules
Every Oakville employer follows the same CRA rules on source deductions, remittance deadlines, T4s and ROEs, and the same Ontario rules on paydays, overtime, vacation pay, WSIB and Employer Health Tax. This year’s rates, deadlines and the Acts behind them are on our payroll services page.
Law: Income Tax Act s.153(1); Employment Standards Act, 2000.
Payroll pricing in Oakville
Payroll is quoted after consultation, as a fixed monthly fee based on your headcount, pay frequency and whether you need WSIB and EHT filing. The price only changes if your headcount, pay schedule or scope does. See what every engagement includes and plans and pricing.
