Small Business Tax FAQs

What is the corporate tax filing deadline in Canada?
Corporate T2 returns are due 6 months after the corporation's fiscal year-end. However, any corporate taxes owing must be paid within 2 months (or 3 months for CCPCs eligible for the small business deduction) of the fiscal year-end to avoid interest charges.
Do I need a corporate T2 return if my business made no money?
Yes. All incorporated Canadian businesses must file a T2 corporate tax return every year, even if there is no taxable income or activity during the fiscal year. Failure to file results in penalties and interest.
How much does small business tax filing cost with AppleTreeTax?
Pricing is customized based on the complexity of your business, number of transactions, and services required. We provide a transparent quote after your initial consultation. Contact us at service@appletreetax.ca to get started.
Can you help if I'm behind on previous years' filings?
Yes. We regularly assist businesses with outstanding prior-year T2 returns and can help with CRA voluntary disclosure programs to minimize penalties. We recommend addressing late filings as quickly as possible to stop interest from accumulating.
Do you handle both Quebec and federal corporate returns?
Yes. Quebec requires a separate provincial corporate tax return filed with Revenu Quรฉbec. We handle both the federal T2 and the CO-17 Quebec return for businesses operating in Quebec.
