Testimonials
The experience was professional and friendly. We retained the services after we sold our place in California. One stop shop for the US side of the deal. Perfect!

Jeanine and Asif were wonderful to work with. My meeting with Asif went very well. He went over all the paperwork and explained everything in detail. Would certainly recommend them.

FRPTA had calculated our US tax returns as per our documents on the sale of our Florida condo last March 2025..
Asif had to identify us in person with our Passports in order to apply for an IRS tax number. He had all the paperwork ready, all we had to do was sign. He went over all the figures and explained the IRS tax laws as pertained to us non residents.
He was friendly and answered all of our questions. FIRPTA looks after sending the documents ,e by courier, and even gave us a tracking number. I would recommend them to do your cross border home sales.
I just wish they would calculate our CRA taxes but sadly they don’t provide this service anymore

We recently dealt with Asif at FIRPTA Canada and we so pleased with the professional and timely service. The process was quick and seamless. Most of the actions could be completed on line, which saves so much time. We look forward to continuing our work with FIRPTA Canada.

We were totally impressed with Jeanine. She was very professional and she always responded in short order to our many questions about our US taxes on the sale of our property in Arizona. We would recommend her and FIRPTA without reservation to anyone requiring these services.

We could not have had better service than that provided by Jeanine Wilk. She was friendly, welcoming but above that well organized and conducted our business to our total satisfaction.
She explained everything about our transaction in a precise manner and ensured that we fully understood the entire process. We would have no hesitation in recommending her to anny prospective clients.
We greatly appreciated service.

We sold a Florida property in 2025 and required an ITIN to file taxes. We were fortunate enough to have a buyer who signed an affidavit such that there was no FIRPTA withholding tax. We did our own US taxes and contracted with FIRPTA Canada to be our Certified Acceptance Agent to certify our passports and submit the ITIN application on our behalf, along with the tax forms we had prepared. We didn't want to cross the border to use a CAA in Detroit so we went to Toronto and worked with Aaron, since Asif wasn't available. He was great and everything went very smoothly. We are still waiting to receive our ITIN but the IRS has cashed our cheque. Thank you FIRPTA Canada for helping make this a stress free experience.

Asif & the FIRTA Canada Team are great. They completed our US tax filings after the sale of our recreational property. They are competent, knowledgeable and efficient with most everything being done electronically. Would definitely recommend them for any Canadians needing to file US taxes!

So far, so good except for FedEx losing our passports being forwarded to FIRPTA while we were still in the USA. Very stressful. Feel it’s a bit early yet to give a full throated review….best to hold off until the job is done. Having said that, so far things seem to be moving as expected.

I had an excellent experience with FIRPTA canada. As a Canadian citizen dealing with U.S. tax matters, the process can be confusing, but they made everything quick, clear, and stress-free. They were extremely professional, responsive, and knowledgeable, and they helped me recover money from the USA efficiently. Everything was handled smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend them to anyone needing cross-border tax assistance.

Quick to take action. So far very very comfortable with FIRPTA. This review was done under my deceased husband R Good. I Darlene Good filled it out.

My BIL found FIRPTA to assist with our tax implications regarding the sale of our US property which is complicated by the fact that there are 4 owners, only one of which is American. They have laid out the whole plan for us to file US returns and capital gains. Jeanine has been AMAZING. I would use FIRPTA again any time. It’s so much less daunting and overwhelming now.

The experience has been as FIRPTA describes it. They literally take you by the hand to get this process done. It is in the early stages but we are confident in all that is being done for us.

As a Canadian selling a house in the US contacting FIRPTA was the best thing I have ever done. I had no idea where to start or what to do. Jeanine and Aaron just took over. Aaron saved me a lot of potential US taxes. I’m sure Jeanine will do the same she Canadian taxes are due.

Only in the early phases of dealing with FIRPTA Canada following the sale of our U.S. property, but so far my experience has been peerless. Prompt replies to inquiries. Great in person experience with Jeannine in Calgary. So far I would enthusiastically recommend them.

Asif from Firpta Canada. He was an absolute gem. He assisted me with the entire IRS legal requirement process for selling my home in Arizona. He team handled all the complex paper work and heavy lifting, making an intimidating process remarkably simple. All I had to do was sign.
They are incredible professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. If you are a Canadian who has sold a property in the US, do not hesitate-use Firpta Canada. They are worth their weight in gold. Highest possible recommidations

The people at Firpta Canada are very knowledgeable and helpful. They explain every step of the process and make it easy. No more hassles trying to deal with the IRS to get an ITIN. They also file on your behalf for a refund of all or part of the IRS withholdings. Prices are also quite reasonable. Highly recommended.

I met with Asif in Toronto several weeks ago. He validated my passport that I needed to apply for an ITIN number saving me having to mail away this document for validation. I am very grateful for this service. In meeting with Asif however, he provided so much more information on the entire process of selling a home in a foreign country than just validating my documents. Asif is extremely knowledgeable, unfailingly polite and respectful and was wonderful to work with. Asif did not rush me in any way and answered all my questions while also providing information that I did not know I should ask. I had a truly positive experience with Asif and FIRPTA. I cannot recommend their services enough.

This team is 5+++ exceptional and very organized. We would definitely use this company again. We sold a mobile home in Florida this year and Firpta Canada made the process easy. They relieved us of a lot of stress by explaining the timelines for getting the required forms completed on time. They took the time to explain step by step what they will do on our behalf and what we can expect going forward. Thank you Firpta and Asif and Jade!
