Canadian freelancer and incorporated workspaces get a running GST/HST estimate and a full GST/HST Summary report. Both use the amounts you've recorded.
Running estimate
On the Add Income tab, the GST/HST estimate sits under Client invoices. For the year to date it shows:
- the GST/HST you collected on income;
- the GST/HST you paid on purchases;
- the estimated net to remit or get back.
It also shows the GST/HST on invoices that aren't paid yet. If some rows have no tax recorded, the card says the figure is incomplete instead of showing zero.
Full report
- Open My Reports, then GST/HST Summary, or select Pick another period on the card.
- Choose a period and select Preview.
- Rows with no recorded tax are listed so you can confirm them. Then create the report.
To fix a number, correct a purchase's GST/PST in Review Expenses (see fixing GST and PST on an expense) or an income row's Tax collected in Review Income.
It's an estimate from your records, not a GST/HST return, and ExpenseBot doesn't file for you.
