My GST number came into effect in August and my PST number about a month later. From that point forward my income and expenses are separated from their GST/PST counterparts. However all of my income/expenses from the first 7 months include GST/PST.
For example my total gross sales include GST up until August, then do not include for tthe remainder of the year. So my total number is mixed. Same with all my expenses throughout the year. Am I just overthinking this and it all actually works itself out?
Or will I need to fill out separate T2125 forms for pre and post registration?
I'm not understanding why "gross sales include GST up until August?" If you were not registered for GST, you should not have been charging GST on your invoices. In my humble opinion, I would suggest that you strip all of the GST you have collected, and separate the GST from the expenses, and remit the difference. I suspect that you are likely to be an annual filer for GST so it should look more reasonable.
In order to regularize your invoices, you can forward a copy of your first invoice, showing that you were adding GST to the invoice, and they will happily back-date your registration.
