Bookkeeping built for Family Managed Home Care
External bookkeeping is a required part of the FMHC program. I provide compliant, CPA-led bookkeeping that meets Ontario Health at Home's reporting standards — with plain-English communication and flat transparent pricing.
Hi, I'm Ali Asghar.
With over 13 years of experience as a Chartered Professional Accountant, I've seen firsthand how stressful financial management can be.
Many families feel left in the dark by traditional firms that only speak in jargon and bill by the hour. I started this practice to change that.
My philosophy is simple: proactive advice, crystal-clear communication, and flat transparent pricing — so you have the financial clarity you need to manage your FMHC responsibilities with absolute confidence

Frequently Asked Questions
-
As an FMHC participant, you are responsible for managing government funding and reporting how every dollar is spent to Ontario Health atHome. The program requires that a qualified bookkeeper — separate from the family — manages the financial records and prepares the monthly reports. This ensures accuracy, compliance with program rules, and protects your funding from being clawed back due to errors or missing documentation.
-
Yes. Ontario Health atHome recognizes bookkeeping as an eligible expense within your approved FMHC budget. This means the $200/month fee is typically paid from your FMHC funding allocation — not out of your own pocket. We can confirm this with you during your free onboarding call.
-
Each month, FMHC participants are required to submit a record of all expenses using the Excel templates provided by Ontario Health atHome. This includes all payments to care providers, invoices, timesheets, and any other approved expenses. Some expenses also require pre-approval from your care coordinator. We prepare these submissions on your behalf — organized, accurate, and on time.
-
Allowable expenses are those directly tied to your approved care plan — such as payments to personal support workers, nurses, and other approved care providers. Personal expenses like rent or groceries are not eligible. Some expenses require pre-approval from your care coordinator before they can be claimed. Part of our role is to flag anything that could fall outside program rules before it becomes a problem.
-
Yes. Ontario Health at Home offers an optional meeting for new FMHC families and their bookkeeper to review the financial aspects of the program before the first billing cycle. We attend this meeting with you, ask the right questions, and make sure we're fully aligned with your care coordinator from day one.
-
Once you're onboarded, we set up a simple, secure way for you to share documents — typically a shared folder. You collect invoices and timesheets from your care providers throughout the month and send them to us. We take it from there: organize everything, categorize it correctly, and prepare your monthly Ontario Health at Home submission. No complicated software required on your end.
-
FMHC contracts can change — care needs evolve, funding gets adjusted, or families sometimes choose to return to traditional home care. If your situation changes, we'll help you wrap up your records cleanly and ensure all final reports are submitted correctly to Ontario Health at Home. There are no long-term lock-in commitments on our end.
