From incorporation to your first set of books, we handle the setup so you can focus on building your business.
The choices you make when you start, like sole proprietorship or corporation, your year-end and your share structure, affect your taxes for years. Getting them right at the start is far easier than fixing them later.

Your profits are rising and it may be time to incorporate.

If you plan to operate mainly in Alberta, a provincial incorporation is usually simpler. A federal corporation gives you name protection across Canada, but it still has to register in each province where it does business. We'll help you choose.
You must register once your taxable sales pass $30,000 in any four consecutive calendar quarters. Many businesses register earlier by choice so they can claim input tax credits. We handle the registration for you.
Your Business Number (BN) is the nine-digit number the CRA uses to identify your business. Your GST/HST, payroll and corporate income tax accounts are all linked to it.
