I formed a habit of filing an extension every year due to Canroy ownership in years gone by and waiting till mid July/early August to pass all current documents on to my CPA. The advantages are that you know there will not be a need to refile corrected forms and also the CPA is not as busy and less hassled so perhaps better attention to detail.

Do make sure to catch the lull between individual filing dates and business filing dates, as waiting too long will put you in the middle of the business filing rush (if your CPA also handles businesses, as mine does).

PS to the other poster, my CPA charges $765 but I think this amount will vary greatly by firm and also by region. Also FWIW, he charged ~35% more when I was only invested in Canadian trusts.
