Check your bank reconciliation for free
The free Close Check runs on your own bank and ledger exports: it reports your match rate and sorts what does not match into bank fee, NSF, duplicate, timing and unknown.
This checklist is general information, not accounting or tax advice. The GST/HST steps restate the cited CRA pages; your own reporting period and due dates are in your CRA account.
