    Found this today. Even though 4 years ago, this is really helpful as am putting together an initial document book before I even get my CLP. I was surprised not knowing how much administrative and documentation you must deal with on a daily basis, but am glad I know before starting out. Thank you!! Will look into your other videos!! Like the way you're so organized for sure!

    so if you are tax exempt is this only sales tax? we still have to pay our taxes at the end of the year or quarterly etc. correct? & my next question is if we are tax exempt, when we do file our taxes are we going to have to pay in more because of this? & will we still be able to write off those items that were purchased without sales tax? for example if i pay 40,000 for a truck when i file can i still subtract that 40,000 off of what i pay in?
