● HST/GST returns

Your HST return, basically done.

Every sale adds the HST you collected; every expense adds a credit. When it's time to file, the math is already done — collected, claimed, and netted, ready to hand to the CRA.

How it works
Your return builds itself all year

No scramble at filing time — every line is already adding up in the background.

STEP 01

It adds up as you go

Every invoice and payment adds the HST you collected. Every business expense adds an Input Tax Credit. Your return builds itself in real time — nothing to reconstruct later.

STEP 02

Pick your reporting period

Annual, quarterly, or monthly — choose whatever the CRA assigned you and LQID totals every line for that period automatically.

HST collected minus your credits equals what you owe — or your refund, if your credits come out higher. The GST34 lines are filled in for you.

FAQ

Common questions

What's an Input Tax Credit?

It's the GST/HST you paid on business expenses, which you subtract from the HST you collected — lowering the net amount you owe the CRA.

Which reporting periods are supported?

Annual, quarterly, and monthly — set it to match whatever filing frequency the CRA assigned you.

Does LQID file the return for me?

No — LQID prepares a GST34-ready summary that you, or your accountant, file with the CRA. It's an estimate to guide you, not a filing.

What if my credits are higher than what I collected?

Then you're owed a refund — LQID shows the net as a credit in your favour rather than an amount to remit.
