FAQ
Are the templates really free?
Yes, no account or card. Email is optional and only used to send updates to the template you downloaded.
Can I use them for clients (accountants, consultants)?
Yes, the licence allows professional use. Reselling templates as is isn’t allowed; the Pro program offers a branded version.
Are the English versions official translations?
They’re drafted in parallel and reviewed; if they differ, the version you sign applies. In Quebec, the French version is sufficient.
When does a template change?
Whenever the QBCA, CBCA or a registry practice changes, and at least once a year. Version and date are on every document.
