TESTIMONIALS
Peter Groves
"In my role as Executor, I retained an estate lawyer, who lauded himself an expert, and referred me to an incompetent accountant. Between the two of them, I was not properly informed of many critical matters, including the CRA withholding tax required to be paid to CRA before when paying out to beneficiaries (in this case Scottish beneficiaries.)
Without proper instruction to not distribute to beneficiaries without a Clearance Certificate, I disbursed house sale proceeds before CRA assessed the tax. I was personally liable for that tax payment, which was a very large amount of money. When I found out my potential liability, I was flabbergasted!! I lost sleep.
When I turned to Estates Made Simple, they jumped in and helped me sort out my file, gave me proper instruction and provided me with an international accountant with estate expertise as well as international tax law. This expert accountant was thankfully able to resolve this messy matter by finding a tax treaty between Scotland and Canada. I am so grateful for Estates Made Simple coming to my rescue!
Next time, should I happen to act as executor again, I would hasten to ask Estates Made Simple to assist me. Quicker response time, much more pleasant to deal with, and more effective than the particular estate lawyer I used."
