The Cross-Border Diagnostic · Where every engagement starts

Know exactly where you stand, on both sides of the border.

A written report from a CPA licensed in both the US and Canada. It shows what you should have filed and haven't, what's exposed, what to change in your setup, and what you can safely ignore. Last, a fixed price for the fix, so you know the cost before you commit.

$250USD

The report is $250. If you hire us for any work after that, you get the $250 back as a discount on that work. No deadline on that.

Where you stand

Two filing obligations open, one of them urgent. No back tax owed; the exposure is the missed disclosures, and the door to clear them is still open.

Why we start here

A good doctor doesn't prescribe before the exam

Cross-border tax problems are almost never what they look like from the outside. A "simple move to Canada" can hide an unfiled foreign-account form with $10,000-a-year penalties attached. So we look first, properly, in writing, and you keep what we find.

What this is worth to you
You almost certainly do not owe years of back US tax. The real exposure is the penalties for the missed disclosures, and the program is what makes them go away.
The one with a clock on it
The penalty-free door only stays open while you come forward first. On your situation it is still open today.

Questions people ask first

Before you decide

Why don't you just do a free consultation?

We do offer a free 15-minute fit call, and it's genuinely useful for figuring out whether the diagnostic is right for you. But real advice takes real work: reading your documents, checking both countries' rules, putting it in writing. Free consultations in this industry are sales calls with a different name. The diagnostic is advice you own. The report is yours either way, and you can take it to any preparer you like.

My situation is complicated. Is this still the right first step?

Complicated situations are the reason it exists. The messier the file, the more it's worth mapping before anyone files anything. If something about your case genuinely doesn't fit the diagnostic, we'll tell you on the fit call before you've paid a dollar.

What happens after I get the report?

The report shows what's wrong and how to fix it, and the last section puts a fixed price on the fix. You can hire us to run it, run parts of it yourself, or take it somewhere else. There's no meeting where we pressure you. Most people who engage us do it because the report made the decision easy.

How fast do I get it?

Three to four business days after you finish the questions, and we're usually faster. That's business days, not calendar days. If we're traveling or backed up, the current turnaround is shown right above the buy button.

Is my information safe?

Payment runs through Stripe, we never see your card. Documents go through our secure client portal, the same one our tax clients use.

Start with the Diagnostic
