Frequently Asked Questions

When is the right time to switch accountants?

It's time to switch when your accountant is unresponsive, misses deadlines, or doesn't proactively offer tax-saving strategies. Businesses in Mississauga and the GTA deserve a strategic CPA partner who helps you grow, not just file returns.

What are the biggest red flags with a current accountant?

Major red flags include: lack of industry expertise, no tax planning (only compliance), poor communication, and outdated technology. If your Ontario business is experiencing any of these, our free assessment can identify what you're missing.

How much does it cost to switch to a new CPA?

Switching costs are typically minimal—most CPAs in Mississauga don't charge transition fees, and the potential tax savings usually far exceed any setup costs. At Insight CPA, we offer a complimentary consultation to review your current situation and show you what you could save.

What should I look for in a new accountant?

Look for industry-specific expertise, proactive tax planning (not just filing), modern cloud-based systems, and responsive communication. The best CPAs serving the GTA offer strategic CFO-level guidance, not just bookkeeping and compliance.

How do I transition to a new accountant smoothly?

A smooth transition involves: requesting your files from your current accountant, signing a new engagement letter, and granting CRA authorization for your new CPA to access your records. Our team in Mississauga handles the entire process—we'll even coordinate the handoff so you don't have to chase paperwork.
