Question 1

When should I register for a GST/HST number?

Accepted Answer

In Canada, you must register for a GST/HST account once your taxable revenue exceeds $30,000 over four consecutive calendar quarters. NorthOS includes a Tax Threshold Tracker that monitors your income, providing alerts before you hit the CRA limit.

Question 2

Does NorthOS support T2125 and T776 tax forms?

Accepted Answer

NorthOS automatically organizes your business income and expenses to match CRA T2125 categories — so when tax season arrives, your records are already sorted. Support for T776 (Real Estate Rentals) is in development.

Question 3

Can I use NorthOS if I'm not registered for GST yet?

Accepted Answer

Yes — NorthOS is built for exactly that stage. If you're under the $30,000 threshold, NorthOS tracks your revenue so you know where you stand. You'll get an alert before you hit the limit so you're never caught off guard.

Question 4

Does NorthOS use the Quick Method or Regular Method for GST/HST?

Accepted Answer

NorthOS is built around the GST/HST Quick Method — the CRA-approved simplified remittance approach available to most businesses under $400,000 in annual taxable sales. Instead of tracking every individual ITC, you remit a flat percentage of gross revenue. Your remittance is calculated automatically every time you log income.
