Why Outsourced Payroll Makes Sense

Payroll is one of the most time-consuming and legally sensitive tasks a small business owner faces. Get it wrong — miscalculate CPP contributions, miss a remittance deadline, issue an incorrect T4 — and you're dealing with CRA penalties, unhappy employees, and hours spent fixing errors. Get it right, and your team is paid on time, your remittances are current, and you have one less thing to worry about.

At Sarv Accounting Services, we handle payroll for small and medium businesses across Surrey and the Lower Mainland — processing pay runs, managing deductions, and ensuring every CRA obligation is met. You tell us your hours and rates; we handle everything else.

CRA Remittances — Never Miss a Deadline

One of the most costly mistakes small business owners make is falling behind on payroll remittances. CRA requires employers to submit deducted CPP, EI, and income tax on behalf of employees — typically by the 15th of the following month. Missing this deadline triggers a 3% penalty for the first failure, escalating to 10% for subsequent ones.

We calculate your remittance amount each pay period and submit it on schedule — either electronically through CRA My Business Account or via your business's online banking. You receive confirmation of every remittance so there's never any doubt about your compliance status.

T4 Slips — Done Right the First Time

Every February, employers across Canada must issue T4 slips to all employees and file a T4 Summary with CRA. Errors on T4 slips — wrong box allocations, missing benefits, incorrect employment codes — can trigger CRA reviews and require amended filings.

We prepare all T4 slips with precision, verify totals against your payroll records, and file the T4 Summary electronically before the deadline. Employees receive their slips promptly so they can file their own returns without delays.

Record of Employment (ROE)

When an employee leaves — whether by resignation, layoff, or going on parental leave — an ROE must be issued within 5 calendar days. An incorrect or late ROE can affect your employee's EI claim and expose your business to compliance issues. We prepare and submit ROEs through Service Canada's ROE Web system accurately and promptly so your departing employees receive their benefits without unnecessary delay.

Payroll for Growing Teams

Whether you have 1 employee or 50, our payroll service scales with you. As you hire, we onboard new employees into the system, verify their TD1 forms, set up correct tax withholding, and integrate them into your next pay run. Adding staff is exciting — payroll admin shouldn't slow you down.
