KEY TAKEAWAYS
Understanding cross-border tax isn’t just about filing correctly—it’s about planning ahead so you can operate efficiently, avoid double tax, and keep more of what you earn. This session highlighted the most important moves business owners should make before year-end to stay compliant, minimize risk, and optimize profit across borders.
1. Year-end is your biggest tax-saving window.
Q4 is where planning—not filing—creates real savings. Reviewing financials and projections now helps reduce your 2025 tax bill.
2. Cross-border mismatches cause double tax.
Income, credits, and structure must align between Canada and the U.S. to avoid NCTI/GILTI issues and unnecessary tax leakage.
3. Transfer pricing can save you thousands.
Strategic profit shifting—done properly—can lower combined tax and prevent double taxation in both countries.
4. Smart depreciation beats zero income.
Bonus and Section 179 deductions should be used to smooth income, fill lower brackets, and avoid future high-rate years.
5. Your entity structure may no longer fit your goals.
Business strategy, cross-border operations, and tax laws evolve—your structure should evolve with them to unlock savings and efficiency.
