Signs Your Process is Broken

Adding more admin staff to a broken system just creates more expensive mistakes. Our consulting team steps in when “business as usual” isn’t working. You need this service if:

  • You Are Facing a PIER Report: The CRA has flagged discrepancies in your CPP/EI deductions (Pensionable and Insurable Earnings Review) and you don’t know how to reconcile them.
  • You Are Transitioning Software: You are moving from manual cheques to a digital platform (or switching providers) and need to migrate your Year-to-Date data without corruption.
  • You Have High Error Rates: You are frequently issuing manual cheques to fix mistakes after payday, or your staff is constantly correcting “retro” pay adjustments.
  • You Are “Catching Up”: You have fallen behind on filings—perhaps due to a staff departure or illness—and need an expert to organize the backlog and file the missing returns efficiently.

Our Diagnostic Approach

We don’t just give advice; we execute the solution.

Expert Analysis

We dive into your general ledger and payroll registers. We look for calculation errors, misclassified employees (vs. contractors), and remittance gaps.

Correction Strategy

We map out the fix. We design a step-by-step plan to resolve the immediate compliance threats, whether it involves a one-time "Clean Up" project or a complete software migration.

Retroactive Cleanup

We roll up our sleeves. We perform the necessary retroactive adjustments, file T4 amendments with the CRA, and correct discrepancies identified in your PIER reports.

Workflow Transition

Once the mess is fixed, we ensure it stays fixed. We train your internal team on the corrected process or transition you to our Outsourced Payroll service if you prefer to offload the risk permanently.

Why Choose GHRC Consulting?

Sometimes the most cost-effective hire isn’t a temporary clerk—it’s a temporary expert.

  • Avoid CRA Penalties - A PIER report or audit can cost thousands in penalties and interest. We fix the data before the CRA finalizes their assessment, saving you money.
  • Neutral Third Party - Internal politics can hide inefficiencies. We provide an objective look at your workflow and tell you the hard truths about what needs to change.
  • Software Agnostic - We aren't trying to sell you specific software. We know how to work with ADP, Ceridian, QuickBooks, and proprietary systems.
  • Specialized Knowledge - Your internal admin might not know the nuances of multi-province taxation or EHT thresholds. We do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We specialize in retroactive adjustments and T4 amendments. If you discovered an error from a previous tax year, we can help you make corrections and get back on side.

No. This is a standalone advisory service. Many clients use us to fix their internal process so they can keep running payroll themselves. Of course, if you decide you want to outsource it later, we can handle that too.

Unlike our processing (which is per-cheque), consulting is typically billed as a flat project fee or hourly rate depending on the complexity of the “cleanup” required.

That is exactly why we are here. We are experts at untangling disorganized records and reconstructing accurate payroll histories.

Yes. We can review your rate group classification and assessable earnings to ensure you haven’t been overpaying—or underpaying—your premiums.
