Cloud Accounting and Content Creators

Whether you are a TikTok sensation, or YouTuber, every Canadian social media influencer and content creator earning income is mandated by the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) to report income. Between digital fame, massive online communities, and brand partnerships, creators often struggle with juggling multiple streams of income and the world of business management. As their audience engagement rates soar, content creators encounter more avenues for revenue.  

The CRA is now cracking down on the digital world, trawling the internet to uncover influencers who may have undeclared income. While the exhilaration of digital fame is certainly worth celebrating, tax compliance often takes a backseat. Ignorance is not a defense when it comes to critical tax responsibilities, and with creators under such a microscope, assembling the right team can help you reclaim your most valuable asset - time.
