Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help reduce the stress and pressure from the constant tax department harassment I receive?
Yes. In many cases, we can step in quickly to help manage and stabilize interactions with the tax department. By taking over communications, eliminating outstanding debt, and establishing a clear path forward, we help relieve the immediate stress, sleepless nights, and constant badgering our clients experience when dealing with unresolved tax matters. While outcomes depend on each situation, our goal is on resolution, so you can return your focus to your business and your family.
How long have you been helping people stop the tax man?
We have been helping Canadian companies get out of tax debt for over three years. We have been so successful that we are now offering the same service to Australia, New Zealand, and the USA.
How many companies have you helped so far, and how successful have you been?
We have helped hundreds. With the way the agreements are secured, no customer has been contacted by any government agency once the deal is finalized.
Overall Concept and Timing
We buy your company. We incorporate a new company if you will be continuing to do commerce. Timing depends on file complexity; once you’re in the priority queue, 5–10 business days is common.
What does the transition look like once I sell you my company?
We design the transition to avoid operational disruption. Your banking/payment rails continue with a planned cutover to the new account. If you have unique constraints, we’ll plan around them in the consult.
Can the ATO continue to chase us after you buy my company?
No—once the transaction is complete. After we engage, you and your counsel may review the agreements. Everything we do is legal and above board. And we make sure the ATO loses interest in you, leaving you free to conduct your business without worrying about tax audits or harassment.
Indemnification & Protection
Multiple indemnity clauses are in the contract. We make sure you and your business are fully protected from the ATO.
Where are you located?
Our parent company is international, but we have offices in Australia as well.
Can we visit your office?
No, for obvious reasons we keep our location confidential. All business is conducted by phone and Zoom.
Will you work with our accountants and lawyers?
Yes. Everything we do is legal, so there is no reason not to engage. We have found that accountants are quite hesitant and cowardly, as are lawyers, to attempt tax avoidance strategies that are totally legal and large multi-nationals use as a course of doing business. We are NOT cowards and we will fight for you with our vast knowledge of the accounting and tax laws.
How fast do we need to move?
- Sooner is always better—being proactive beats trying to fix a crisis. Once your deposit is in and you’re in the priority queue, typical completion is 5–10 business days (file-dependent).
- Letters ($1000 each) are not included and only used case-by-case (e.g., frozen accounts, active lawsuits). We will always tell you about any additional costs before proceeding.
- Ongoing consults with our founder, Kevin J. Johnston, are beyond the scope and charged separately.
Do you guarantee outcomes?
No. All matters depend on individual circumstances and regulatory decision-making.
Is the information on this website advice?
Information provided is general in nature and does not replace personalised professional advice.
Can you assist with serious tax debt?
Yes, we assist clients in understanding and managing complex tax situations, including compliance and enforcement matters.
Can you get the tax man off my back for a debt in my personal name?
We can, but it’s time consuming and difficult, so we charge an additional fee.
What happens to all the company assets when Kevin buys my company?
Nothing. You keep all your assets and we help you keep them out of the clutches of the ATO.
Do I need to set up a new company after Kevin buys my company?
We will help you continue doing business under your business name, but your company will be completely debt free and the ATO will not bother you again.
Can I set up a payment program to pay your fee?
Yes, we will help you ease the payment to get out of debt.
Do I need an offshore bank account to continue operating my business?
We will help you set up bank accounts so that you continue in business. It makes no difference where the bank accounts are, as long as you have a debit card associated with the account.
What about GST and BAS payments? Can you help me with them as well?
Yes, we will help you stop paying GST and BAS during the share transfer process, or as a separate accounting service.
