Completing your corporation income tax (T2) return

All corporations with annual gross revenue of more than $1 million have to Internet file their T2 Corporation Income Tax Return, except for:

• insurance corporations;
• non-resident corporations;
• corporations reporting in functional currency; and
• corporations that are exempt from tax payable under section 149 of the Income Tax Act.

We will charge a $1,000 penalty for non-compliance if a corporation that is required to Internet file doesn not comply with the requirement.

Whether you Internet file or use the traditional CRA-issued paper return to complete your T2 return, you will have different options for filing your return and preparing your financial statements using the General Index of Financial Information (GIFI).
