 woman with headacheApril 30th, TAX deadline 
 
It has been another wonderfully exciting and full year with its expected highs and lows. August saw me travelling to Brisbane, Australia which is where I am writing this from, with a Fiance Visa in hand. I got married in December here in Oz, and I even had my cat sent over in October.
 
 I am returning to Vancouver for two months of the Tax Season and am open for business as of March 1st until April 30th. I WILL BE RETURNING TO AUSTRALIA on MAY 5th, so anyone who would like me to continue doing their taxes MUST see me in these two months. I'm sorry I won't be able to accommodate those who use the June 15th deadline unless they use SKYPE. That means call me at 604.321.2670 or email me at ahryniuk@telus.net NOW to set up your appointment.  Get all your receipts together, tally them up and bring in your totals. If you don't have an appointment by April 20th I CANNOT GUARANTEE your taxes will be done by April 30th.
 
I am happy to take on new clients, as long as they know I won't be as available in the off months as I have been thus far.
Screaming Man 
Some housekeeping notes. My Vancouver phone number (604.321.2670) is a Computer phone so it rings straight through to my office in Brisbane, at no cost to you! Likewise, I can ring you back from Oz at no cost to me. Please don't be shy to call. Also, I am completely available on SKYPE to do appointments, if you're comfortable and fluid on the computer and would like to meet after the April 30th deadline. All my contact information is in the sidebar to the left.
 
There are a number of changes afoot, all of which have yet to be revealed even to me. I may take on a partner who will service clients in the off months, outside of tax season, with all the Reviews and questions about Notice of Assessments. My plan, in this moment, is to continue to return to Canada for two months of the Tax Season until such time that I return to Canada indefinitely.
 
For those not in the loop, my husband has a son who is 13 and just beginning highschool. It is our plan to return to Canada within two years, so Josh can attend a year of highschool in Vancouver and we can resume life there. As much as I love Brisbane, Vancouver is home.
 
I want to deeply thank all of you who year after year call in advance, have your numbers tallied and pay me when the work is complete. You are my pride and joy, because you are showing up to yourself and taking financial responsibility. This in turn leaves room for your spirit to get on with the business of what you love to do best.
 
I'm gearing up for coming back. I look forward to seeing all of you and hearing how your year has been. 
Keep on keeping on.
Angela

Here are some other things that you should know about:
  • Personal amount: The basic personal amount has increased to $10,320.
  • Working income tax benefit (WITB): Tax relief provided by increased funding to the WITB has been enriched for 2009.

The credit applies to expenses of more than $1,000, but not more than $10,000.

Two Part Workshop

Sunday, March 21th & April 18th
Time: 10 - 4 p.m. 
Venue: TBA
Cost: $99 (plus GST)  before March 15th, $125 after  (for each Sunday)
 
This year I am offering two- one day Workshops looking at the emotions of money: how to create prosperity, have more time, friends, money, and good  health. This will be two days of uncovering and learning about our belief systems around money, doing guided meditations, what creates meaning and purpose in our lives, and a chance to meet new people. Ultimately we want to be the Creators of our lives, rather than always reacting to what gets thrown at us.
 
Email or phone TODAY to reserve your place at the Workshop!

The Wedding
angandsteveweddingsnuggle 
For the curious and or interested, Steve Seaton and I met in London, England in 1977, when I was the tender age of 14. We wrote letters for two years until 1979, when I ventured to England to be with him, definitely against the wishes of my parents. We lasted all of four months and I returned to Canada. The short version of the story is that he & I reconnected in 1985 briefly while I was researching a novel I was writing about the time in 1979 we were together. After that we completely lost touch until I googled him in 2006. We have been travelling back & forth between Canada and Australia for the past three years, and December saw the next phase of our lives together. It's been a long journey, but it's been well worth it!
 
 
And for the uber curious, here's the link to all the wedding photos
