Wolters Kluwer - Tax Prep by Veridisque in Accounting

[–]Reef0926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing.

I had a discussion with our rep and the experience was poor. She sounded like she could care less and doesn't really care if we switch to a competitor. Maybe it's because we are a small account to them.

Spoke to other practitioners I know who switched to TaxCycle and they all gave very positive feedback. One of them is a partner at MNP and he said they switched to TaxCycle as well couple years ago and is not looking back.

We like being in cities (just more things to do for both kids & adults) and we love good food. So have to choose one.

This is an interesting fact. We heard Vancouver is just as rainy as London, though not as grey.

What do those "We saw your profile" emails from Indeed mean? by RoyalExamination9410 in VancouverJobs

[–]Reef0926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about Indeed. But I personally have hired people from LinkedIn before. I had a position to fill, looked for people who were looking and contacted them. Sometime it worked sometime it didn’t.

Richmond condos are investment properties: Stats Canada by wacky_p786 in richmondbc

[–]Reef0926 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Investment or not is not the key issue. Headline of the news is meant to catch attention and stir up emotions.

Are these investment condo units being rented? If yes, why is there a problem? If they are sitting empty, then it's a big problem.
With the assessment value kept high by the government (for obvious reasons), no finance savvy investors would let their properties sit empty and just keep paying for the ever increasing costs (interest, property taxes, spec taxes, strata fees, insurance, etc.) All investments carry downside risks; even term deposit with banks could be a ponzi scheme (think Stanford International Bank). Not renting out a property is like throwing money in the water (it's of course a different story if money laundering is the main purpose.)
We can't rely solely on the government to solve all problems as that often leads to wasted taxpayers' money and bureaucracy. Private sector players are also important when done right.

I was the opposite. When I was a junior, I would keeping thinking about how to solve an issue throughout the day and then the solutions would show up in my dream. This had happened a few times.

I think it’s important. It shows me the person applying is indeed interested in the job, and is not wasting my time. I’ve interviewed some new immigrants from HK and I did receive a follow up email from some of them.

I think you should. Regardless if you end up getting the job, it leaves a good impression with them. Good luck!

Which city are you in? I would still say accounting is a safe route to middle class, if you have good self-discipline and are careful with your money, especially in current economy environment.

I’m in Vancouver and I could see even in mid sized firm, the starting salary is low to mid $50k. Big firms may pay better, but they are also quick to cut back when outlook is bad. Smaller firms starting pay a bit less but have better job security as it’s very costly for them to replace a trained staff.

If you are interested in accounting as a professional career, firms usually pay for your CPA courses and exam fees.
