Organise the year-end

Confirm the fiscal year-end and assemble the corporation’s financial records and relevant schedules. Review the applicable T2 electronic filing requirements.

Separate filing from payment

The T2 return is due within six months after the fiscal year-end. Tax payments generally fall due earlier, and instalments may apply. Check the corporation’s payment conditions instead of using its filing deadline as the payment date.
