I am involved with a number of businesses, which include Brooklin Tax and Bookkeeping Services Inc., Hogan Financial Services Inc. and Alan Hogan, CPA, CGA. My office, originally in my home, was moved nine years ago to its current location at 62 Winchester Road East, across from the Luther Vipond Arena. Accounting, bookkeeping, personal and corporate taxes and the preparation of financial statements are the core of my business. My practice provides services to both individuals and owner-managed businesses in computers, construction, professionals, farming, retail, not-for- profit and other various industries. Bookkeeping services We provide bookkeeping services for numerous clients, Including the preparation and filing of HST returns and source deduction calculations. These lead to financial statement preparation, the preparation and submissions of T4s, T3s, T5s, T5018s and other related submissions. We can assist clients with business plans and forecasts, startups, succession planning, payroll and employee issues, to name a few. Audit assistance We also help clients with audits conducted by the Canada Revenue Agency, Workplace Safety and Insurance Board and any other agency that might be required to perform audits on client documentation. We will meet with the auditors on behalf of our clients, file appeals or notice of objections and then follow through on the process to ensure that our client's issues have been dealt with. If you have received a letter from Canada Revenue Agency, do not ignore it as, in most cases, it can be resolved very easily. Broad network We would like to provide every service our client needs, however, this is simply not possible. We have a network of Tax and Accounting specialists at our disposal to work on complicated tax issues. We also have a network of other professionals for referrals such as Financial Planners, Lawyers, Real Estate Agents, Banks, Mortgage Brokers, etc. Volunteer activities are an important part of our personal and business life. I have recently joined the "100 Men of Oshawa" and "100 Men of Whitby," the focus of both groups being to raise money for local charities. I have coached minor soccer, coached and managed minor hockey and was the Director of Public Practice for the Durham CGA chapter for four years.
