Pro forma invoice
A pro forma invoice will be calculated to provide you with the estimated cost of all orders. The pro forma invoice is subject to any changes in price or policies initiated by CPA Canada at its discretion. In the case of a discrepancy between the pro forma invoice and the actual invoice issued by CPA Canada, CPA Canada's invoice will be binding.
Backordered products
Orders containing a combination of both available and backordered products will be handled as follows:
- Available products and all associated shipping, handling, and taxes will be charged at the point of sale.
- Once backordered products are shipped, an invoice for the product, along with applicable shipping, handling, and taxes, will be sent.
Shipping and handling

Regular shipping orders are delivered via CanPar, which requires someone to be present to accept delivery.
Shipping and handling is calculated on regular orders in Canada* as follows:
