Incorporation Services in North York for $35, Filed by a CPA Firm
Your North York incorporation is drafted and filed for $35.00, HST included, with the registry fee shown on its own line at cost. A Chartered Professional Accountant signs off on the shares and the board first.
The registry charges a North York business the same $300.00 it charges anybody else in Ontario, so the postal code changes nothing about the price. Our fee is $35.00 and the HST is already in it. The structure is the part worth spending time on.
What North York changes is the kind of question that comes up. A realtor needs a personal real estate corporation named the way RECO requires. A clinic runs into professional corporation share rules. A restaurant needs payroll and HST registered before it opens the doors.
Affordable Incorporation in North York for $35
We file for North York owners in Willowdale, Yonge and Sheppard, North York Centre, Don Mills, Bayview Village, York Mills, Lawrence Manor, Downsview, Flemingdon Park and Parkwoods. North York is part of the City of Toronto, so an Ontario corporation covers it with nothing further to register.
Realtors, clinics, consultants and restaurant operators make up most of the work here. Each of them needs a different line in the articles, which is why the structure is agreed in conversation rather than guessed from a form.
Ontario or federal comes first, and a business that trades only in the GTA is almost always better off in Ontario.

Our Services for North York Businesses
Our professional fees include HST. Government fees are separate, itemised and charged at cost with no mark-up.
Full-Service Incorporation Support for North York Businesses
The same seven services in full detail, so nothing about the filing is a surprise once you have ordered it.
NUANS Name Search Report in North York
- Only an Ontario-biased report is accepted here. A Canada-biased report is refused even though the same search house produces both.
- Names made of a surname and a single trade word are the ones that collide, so three options are tested before any report is bought.
- The results cover corporate names, registered business names and trademarks already on file.
- Being granted a name is not owning it. Trademark rights arise under the Trademarks Act and from use, not from a registry endorsement.
- A report lasts 90 days. File later than that and the search is paid for twice.
Incorporation Service in North York
- The articles set which classes may exist, how many directors are allowed and whether share transfers are restricted.
- A minimum and a maximum is the normal answer, so a second director can be added without touching the articles.
- By-law number one, the opening resolutions and the share subscriptions are drafted with the filing rather than after it.
- Ontario issues a company key with the certificate, and nothing can be filed against the record without it.
- Online, the certificate is issued on submission. By post, the ministry allows 15 business days.
Registered Office Address Service in North York
- Ontario requires a real address in the province, and ministry notice ON00224E excludes a post office box used on its own.
- The address on the articles is public from the day it is filed, and it stays searchable after any change.
- A move is recorded as a notice of change, which the registry does not charge for.
- Registry and Canada Revenue Agency post is taken in at the North York office and sent on to you.
- The fee for the address service is on our pricing page, with HST inside the quoted figure.
Payroll Service in North York
- The RP account goes onto the business number before anybody is paid.
- A regular remitter remits by the 15th of the month following the pay period.
- T4 slips and the summary are filed by the last day of February each year.
- Salary generates RRSP room and CPP credits, a dividend generates neither, and the balance between them is a decision rather than a default.
- WSIB coverage is compulsory for construction work, with or without anyone on the payroll.
One Window Service for Corporation in North York
- The articles, the business number and the accounts that follow all sit with one person.
- RC, RT and RP are opened as the business needs them rather than all at once.
- HST registration is compulsory once taxable supplies exceed $30,000 over four consecutive calendar quarters.
- The first year end sits within 53 weeks of incorporation, and changing it afterwards needs Canada Revenue Agency approval.
- The minute book, the share registers and the transparency register are created at the start, which is far cheaper than reconstructing them.
Corporate Annual Filing in North York
- Ontario's Annual Return is due six months after the year end and costs $0.00.
- Corporations Canada wants its annual return within 60 days of the anniversary date, at $12.00 online.
- The annual return is corporate law and goes to a registry. The T2 is tax and goes to Canada Revenue Agency. Filing one does not satisfy the other.
- Miss enough returns and the registry dissolves the corporation, after which it has to be revived before it can trade again.
- Ontario has required a register of individuals with significant control since 1 January 2023. It is kept at the corporation, not filed.
Corporate Tax Filing in North York
- The T2 is filed six months after the year end, with GIFI statements attached.
- Tax is payable two months after the year end, or three where the small business deduction applies.
- Combined Ontario tax inside the $500,000 business limit runs at 12.2 percent on active business income.
- Equipment, fit-out and vehicles are written down on Schedule 8 rather than claimed in full in year one.
- Fees begin at $300.00 including HST, and the figure is confirmed in writing before work starts.
What We Handle on a North York Incorporation
Ten questions decide what the corporation costs to run. All ten are answered before the articles are drafted.
Ontario or federal
- Federal protects the name coast to coast.
- Ontario covers a business trading inside the province.
- Federal needs a resident Canadian on the board.
- Federal corporations file Ontario's Initial Return too.
Crossing a provincial line
- Business in another province is registered there.
- A federal name holds in every jurisdiction.
- An Ontario name stops at the provincial line.
- Consultants with out-of-province clients cross it most.
Named or numbered
- A number avoids the search altogether.
- A name requires the report before filing.
- A registered trading name can front a number.
- A brand or a storefront argues for a name.
Share classes
- How many classes to put in the articles today.
- Separating votes from value where it earns its keep.
- A preferred class ready for a freeze.
- A transfer restriction in place from the first day.
Who holds the shares
- Whether a spouse takes shares at all.
- Section 120.4 of the Income Tax Act and the excluded business test.
- A trust while any child is under 18.
- The lifetime capital gains exemption when you sell.
Directors
- One director is enough in Ontario.
- Ontario's residency rule ended on 5 July 2021.
- Federally the board is a quarter resident Canadian.
- A consent to act precedes a valid appointment.
The registered office
- A real address in Ontario, not a box.
- Published, and searchable even after it changes.
- An office or a leased suite can serve.
- Our North York office is available instead.
The Initial Return
- Filed within 60 days in Ontario.
- Required by the Corporations Information Act.
- The registry charges $0.00 to file it.
- Directors and officers only, no shareholdings.
Minute book and registers
- The OBCA requires the records to exist and be available.
- Shares, directors, officers and resolutions sit inside.
- The transparency register is kept with them.
- Any buyer or lender asks to see it.
Business number, HST and the year end
- The business number arrives after the certificate.
- HST begins at $30,000 of taxable supplies.
- The first year end lands inside 53 weeks.
- No instalments while tax owing is under $3,000.

Case Studies
Three North York files, each showing where the owner started and what was changed before anything went to the registry.
A PREC Drafted to the RECO Rules in Willowdale
Problem
A Willowdale realtor was about to incorporate a numbered company and start invoicing commissions through it, with no RECO filing in hand.
Solution
The articles were drafted to the personal real estate corporation rules, with the controlling shares held by the registrant and family shares set as non-voting. The name was built to the form RECO requires before anything was filed.
Results
- Numbered Ontario corporation filed at $335.00
- Controlling shares held by the registrant
- Name built to the form RECO requires
Classes Opened for a Holding Company in Don Mills
Problem
A Don Mills software consultant held one class of common shares and was retaining profit in the operating company with no plan for it.
Solution
Three classes were authorised at incorporation so a holding company can be placed above later without an amendment. The year end was set to spread the first tax payment across two calendar years.
Results
- Three classes authorised for a future holdco
- Year end set to split the first tax payment
- No amendment needed when the holdco goes in
Payroll and HST Set Up Before a Yonge Street Opening
Problem
A restaurant opening near Yonge and Sheppard had signed a lease and hired four staff before the corporation had any CRA accounts.
Solution
The RT and RP accounts were opened before the first pay run, and the HST on the fit-out was recovered as an input tax credit. The WSIB position was settled in the same week.
Results
- RT and RP accounts live before the first pay run
- HST on the fit-out recovered in full
- WSIB position settled in the same week
The registry does not read your articles to see whether they fit the business. It checks the form is complete, endorses it, and leaves the consequences to you.
Where the work actually goes
A business selling only in Ontario can file here for $300.00. One selling across provinces, or wanting its name protected nationally, usually files federally at $200.00 and adds $80.00 to register extra-provincially in Ontario.
Residency on the board
A federal board must be a quarter resident Canadian under section 105(3) of the Canada Business Corporations Act, and at least one where there are fewer than four directors. Ontario imposes no residency test.
Classes authorised for later
Authorising three classes costs exactly what authorising one costs. Doing it now avoids a $200.00 amendment the day a spouse, a holding company or an investor is added.
Shareholdings tested
Shares held by a spouse or an adult child are tested under section 120.4 of the Income Tax Act. Whether the dividend is taxed at their rate or the top rate depends on the facts, so it is settled before the shares go out.
Office, year end and HST
A physical address in Ontario is required, and ministry notice ON00224E makes clear a post office box on its own will not do. The address is published and remains searchable later.
Filed, then diarised
An online filing is processed by the Ontario Business Registry on submission, so the certificate arrives the same day. Posted articles are given 15 business days.
