About JPS Accounting Services Inc


Accounting office in Suite 205 on Elgin Avenue keeping books, payroll and tax filings in order for individuals and firms.

Tax season gets the attention, but the steady work of an accounting office happens in the other eleven months of the year. JPS Accounting Services Inc. keeps offices at Suite 205, 2248 Elgin Avenue, on the central streets of Port Coquitlam near City Hall and the old Shaughnessy strip. A neighborhood practice like this one usually serves a mix of personal filers and the small businesses that keep a city running: the tradesperson, the corner shop, the contractor who would rather be on a job site than in his books.

What to ask an accountant is partly about the return itself and partly about the year around it. For individuals, the questions are what can be claimed, how investments or rental income change the filing, and what records to keep. For a small business, they are bookkeeping rhythm, payroll, and whether the office can take on year-end statements and filings with the Canada Revenue Agency on a schedule that suits the business. Fees are worth raising directly: how billing works, whether it is flat or hourly, and what happens if a file runs longer than expected. It is also reasonable to ask how questions between filings get handled, since a quick email in November can save a scramble in April.

The listing does not display a phone number or a website, so the smoothest first step is to arrive organized: last year's return, the current year's slips, and a short list of anything unusual. An accounting relationship, once it starts, tends to be a long one, because an accountant who knows a file can spot what a fresh pair of eyes would miss. For residents who commute across Metro Vancouver by the Lougheed Highway or the West Coast Express, keeping the books with a local office beats a drive into Vancouver for the same conversation.
