Canadian taxes done right —
T1, T2125, T2, and HST/GST in one app.

MapleTax is the Canadian-built tax filing app inside MapleWorkSuite. It prepares T1 personal returns, T2125 self-employment statements, T2 corporate returns, and HST/GST returns for Canadian individuals and small businesses. It is CRA NETFILE-certified for T1, supports EFILE for T2 through a registered preparer, and integrates directly with MapleExpense (receipts auto-populate deductions), MapleInvoice (revenue lines roll into T2125 and T2), and MapleBuy (HST/GST collected on sales fans out to the right CRA boxes by province). Priced in CAD with no per-FX surprises and a free tier for low-income Canadians.

TurboTax and H&R Block are US-headquartered desktop-era products that charge $40-$80 CAD per T1 return and treat self-employment and corporate returns as expensive upsells. SimpleTax/Wealthsimple Tax is free for simple T1 but does not file T2 corporate, charges $40 for the Plus tier, and offers no built-in expense or invoice integration. MapleTax is end-to-end: T1 + T2125 + T2 + HST/GST in one app, integrated with the rest of MapleWorkSuite (so receipts, invoices, and sales tax flow in automatically), Canadian-hosted with PIPEDA data residency, and 25% cheaper than the closest paid alternative on every comparable plan. We also publish the actual CRA forms we generate so you can sanity-check them line-by-line before NETFILE.

Yes. MapleTax holds an active CRA NETFILE certification for the current tax year T1 General return, including all provincial and territorial schedules, and we re-certify every year with the CRA before the February 22 NETFILE open date. For T2 corporate returns, MapleTax generates CRA-compliant T2 schedules including GIFI (General Index of Financial Information) schedules 100, 125, and 141, plus Schedule 50 for shareholders. Direct T2 EFILE transmission requires a CRA-registered EFILE preparer; MapleTax includes a free preparer-handoff workflow for our Business and CPA tiers if you want the return e-filed for you, or you can print the T2 bar-coded return and mail it.

Yes - this is one of the biggest gaps in consumer tax software, and MapleTax is built around it. Sole proprietors get a guided T2125 Statement of Business or Professional Activities with auto-imported receipts and mileage from MapleExpense and MapleDrive, vehicle-expense pro-ration, home-office calculator (workspace-in-home), and CCA (Capital Cost Allowance) tracking across years. Incorporated small businesses get a guided T2 with GIFI schedules, SR&ED-friendly expense categorization, Small Business Deduction (SBD) calculator, CCPC (Canadian-Controlled Private Corporation) status worksheet, and Schedule 50 shareholder reporting. Family tax planning (income splitting via T1206, RESP/RRSP optimization) is included on the Pro and Business tiers.

Yes. MapleTax includes a province-aware HST/GST return generator that pulls sales tax collected from MapleBuy and MapleInvoice and pre-fills the GST34 (or RC7200 for selected listed financial institutions). Provincial rates are handled automatically: 5% GST in Alberta, BC, NU, NT, YT, SK, MB; 13% HST in Ontario; 15% HST in NB, NL, NS, PE; plus 9.975% QST stacked on 5% GST in Quebec via a parallel QST schedule. Quick Method election is supported with the right remittance rate per province. Returns can be e-filed via CRA My Business Account, or exported as a PDF for your bookkeeper.

Capital gains: full Schedule 3 support including dispositions of real estate (with principal-residence exemption tracking via T2091), publicly traded securities, crypto (yes, the CRA treats it as property), and small business shares with Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption (LCGE) tracking. The 50% inclusion rate is applied automatically and we surface the 2024 mid-year rate change (66.67% above $250k threshold) where applicable. DTC: full T2201 workflow including practitioner certification PDF generation, retroactive ten-year adjustment requests, and transfer to a supporting family member. RRSP: the AI optimizer pulls your CRA notice-of-assessment contribution room (with your consent), projects marginal-tax-rate savings across the next three years, and tells you exactly how much to contribute - and whether to defer the deduction - before the March 1 deadline.

Four tiers, all priced in CAD with no FX markup, all charged per tax filing season (not per return): Free ($0 / season) for simple T1 returns under the Canadian Basic Personal Amount with up to three T-slips; Solo ($49 / season) - one T1 with unlimited T-slips, RRSP optimizer, AI deduction finder, and audit-trail PDF; Family ($79 / season) - up to five linked T1 returns with income splitting (T1206, pension splitting), DTC transfer, RESP optimizer, and the free MapleExpense connector; Pro ($149 / season, Most Popular) - everything in Family plus T2125 self-employment, HST/GST returns, mileage tracker, home-office calculator, and MapleInvoice + MapleBuy connectors; Business ($499 / season) - everything in Pro plus T2 corporate return with full GIFI schedules, SBD calculator, CCPC worksheet, Schedule 50 shareholder reporting, and one free CRA EFILE preparer handoff. Add-on $199 audit defense and $79 per extra corporation if you operate multiple CCPCs.

Yes. All tax returns, T-slips, receipts, supporting documents, and the audit trail are stored exclusively on Canadian-hosted infrastructure in the Maritimes and Central Canada with end-to-end encryption at rest and in transit. We align with PIPEDA, Quebec Law 25 (Bill 64), and provincial privacy acts. Your tax data is never sent to third-party AI providers and never used to train external models. CRA NETFILE transmissions go through the certified MapleTax preparer endpoint over TLS 1.3 directly to CRA - no intermediary cloud. Subjects can exercise access, correction, and deletion requests through a self-serve portal that returns within the statutory thirty-day window, and full seven-year audit retention is maintained to satisfy CRA record-keeping requirements (subsection 230(4) of the Income Tax Act).
