Corporate tax returns (T2), accurate and on time
We prepare your T2 corporate return from clean books, claim the small-business deduction where it applies, and plan ahead so your tax bill is honest, never a shock.
What your corporate tax return includes
A corporate return is only as good as the books behind it. We reconcile first, then prepare a T2 that stands up to scrutiny, and we explain the drivers of your tax so you can make salary-vs-dividend and timing decisions with your eyes open.
- T2 corporate income tax return and schedules
- Financial statement preparation (notice-to-reader style)
- Small-business deduction and eligible expenses
- Salary vs. dividend planning with the owner
- GIFI, T5 and related filings
- CRA correspondence handled on your behalf
- Year-round questions, not just at filing time

Corporate tax questions we hear a lot
When is my T2 due?
A T2 is generally due six months after your fiscal year-end, but any tax owing is usually due two or three months after year-end. We map your exact dates so nothing is late.
Do I need financial statements too?
Yes, a T2 is built on financial statements. We prepare them as part of the engagement, so it’s one coordinated job, not two.
Should I pay myself salary or dividends?
It depends on your income needs, RRSP room and CPP position. We model both and recommend a mix, it’s part of every corporate engagement.
My corporation is behind on returns. Can you help?
Yes. We catch up multiple years, reconstruct the books where needed, and get you compliant with the CRA.
