ITC recovery for Canadian founders
Early-stage Canadian startups spend heavily on SaaS, cloud, and professional services. Most founders don't realize they can recover 5–15% of those expenses as GST/HST Input Tax Credits. The money is sitting in your AP data — you just need to find it.
Why founders miss credits
Personal cards
Early spend goes on founder credit cards before corporate accounts exist. Those charges still qualify.
Tax isn't priority one
Founders focus on product and customers. Recovery falls through the cracks until year-end or later.
Bookkeeping is messy
Startup AP has inconsistent vendor names, missing tax breakdowns, and mixed personal/business charges.
69 error types to check
Rate mismatches, PST leakage, place-of-supply, simplified registration — no founder has time to check all 69.
Where the money hides
These are the most common startup expense categories where ITCs go unclaimed:
