Six things need to be true before a new Canadian corporation is genuinely ready to trade. Most incorporation-only providers stop at the first one.
“Is it actually a company yet?”
Name search, articles of incorporation and registration, federally or in your province.
“Do I need a number for this?”
Business number plus the program accounts your operations require, opened in the right order.
“Should I be charging tax?”
Registered where required or chosen voluntarily, with filing frequency picked deliberately.
“I want to pay myself properly.”
Payroll account open and remittance schedule understood before the first pay date, not after.
“Where do the receipts go?”
QuickBooks Online or Desktop, Xero, Sage or Tally configured with a chart of accounts that suits your business.
“When is anything actually due?”
Fiscal year end chosen, filing dates calendared, and the first T2 corporate tax return anticipated.
how it goes
We talk through what you're building, who owns it, where you'll operate, and whether incorporating now is the right move at all. Federal or provincial, share structure, fiscal year end, and the tax picture that follows from each choice.
Name availability checked, articles prepared and the incorporation filed with the registry you've chosen. Documents come back to one organised place rather than three different inboxes.
Business number, then the program accounts you actually need, GST/HST where it applies, payroll if you're hiring, import/export if you're moving goods. Filing frequencies chosen on purpose.
Accounting software selected and configured, chart of accounts built for your business, bank feeds connected, and a simple monthly rhythm agreed for getting us your documents.
Ongoing bookkeeping, payroll and HST filings, with the corporate year-end and first T2 corporate tax return planned well ahead of the deadline instead of discovered near it.

Government filing fees are set by the registry and charged at cost on top. Your CRA business number, GST/HST account and payroll account are set up free of charge as part of every package.
Incorporation is a legal step with tax consequences. We'll tell you plainly if your situation calls for a lawyer as well, and we don't file anything until you've agreed the scope and the fee.
It depends on where you'll operate, whether you want name protection across Canada, and how much ongoing filing you want to take on. We work through both options with you before anything is filed.
Not always. It's tied to your revenue and the kind of supplies you make, and some businesses register voluntarily for reasons of their own. We review your situation and explain the trade-offs both ways.
Timing depends on the jurisdiction, the name search, and how quickly documents and identification come back to us. We confirm expected timing for your specific filing during the consultation.
Our professional fee starts at $399 for Incorporate, $599 for Incorporate & operate and $799 for Incorporate & managed. Government filing fees are set by the registry and charged at cost on top. Both are confirmed in writing after the consultation, before any work starts.
Incorporation and the registrations that follow are governed by these federal and provincial pages.
External links open on Government of Canada and provincial registry sites. Rules change; we confirm the current position for your situation during the consultation.
