The corporate annual return is not your CRA tax return. Federal, Ontario and British Columbia registries all treat it as a separate corporate-record filing, and sustained default can affect good standing or lead to administrative dissolution. Get a private, in-browser workspace and playbook that maps those registry dates beside your T2, labels which rules are official-source cross-checked, and gives you reminders you control.

A preview of the Workspace: annual-return and T2 dates stay visibly separate.
Official registry pages make the same basic point: the annual return is a corporate-registry obligation, not the CRA T2. If it is missed for long enough, a corporation can move into overdue, not-in-good-standing, cancellation or dissolution territory depending on the jurisdiction.
The annual return goes to the corporate registry. The T2 goes to the CRA. They're different filings in different places — and most owners assume the tax return covers both. It doesn't.
Ontario annual returns are filed directly through ServiceOntario / the Ontario Business Registry, not inside a CRA T2 filing. If your accountant only confirmed the T2, the registry filing may still need a separate owner check.
Corporations Canada says reminder and default notices are sent by email if subscribed, otherwise by post to registered or additional addresses on file. Stale addresses make the reminder layer weaker.
And the downside is not just a reminder email. Corporations Canada says overdue corporations cannot obtain a Certificate of Compliance and may be dissolved after sustained non-filing; BC says a company is not in good standing after missing the two-month annual-report window and may be dissolved after two consecutive missed reports; Quebec says repeated missed updating declarations can lead to cancellation and, for Quebec legal persons, dissolution.
Free reminders tell you a date. This gives you the clarity, the multi-jurisdiction tracking, the escalation and the judgement they don't — all in a tool that runs entirely on your own device.
Add each corporation and extra-provincial registration in seconds. A federal corporation registered in a province may owe more than one filing. The official-source cross-checked deadline logic ships for Federal (CBCA), Ontario and British Columbia; Alberta, Quebec and any other jurisdiction are included as editable confirm-first starting points before relying on them — we tell you exactly which is which.
The Workspace computes each cross-checked or editable annual-return window from your dates and shows it next to your T2 date, clearly labelled as a different filing, with a live Red / Amber / Green status signal.
One click generates escalating calendar reminders — 60, 30, 14, 3 and 0 days before each deadline — that you import into Google, Outlook or Apple Calendar. On a device you check, not an inbox you forgot.
You file on the official site (this never files for you). Mark it done, log the confirmation number, and the math rolls forward to next year.
Everything is yours after one purchase. No subscription. No data ever leaves your device.
A real, working in-browser tool: multi-corporation tracker, per-jurisdiction date math (cross-checked for Federal, Ontario & British Columbia; Alberta, Quebec and other jurisdictions ship as editable confirm-first defaults), live Red/Amber/Green status, escalating .ics calendar reminders, and JSON backup export/import. Fully private — runs offline once loaded.
The deep guide: the annual-return-vs-T2 distinction, direct Ontario filing, jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction rule notes, the stale-contact-details trap, and an honest "I think I already missed it" triage.
Fill-in CSVs to capture every corporation once and keep a year-by-year filing record with confirmation numbers — the paper trail that proves you filed.
A wall-ready one-pager so the two filings never blur again, plus the official registry links to confirm every rule for your jurisdiction so you trust each date.

No. It runs entirely in your browser, stores nothing on any server, and never transmits your data. It computes your deadlines and generates calendar reminders. You do the actual filing on the official registry — we link you straight to it. This keeps your data fully private and means we never get between you and the government.
Because a registry reminder only helps if it reaches the right address at the right time and covers the filing you owe. This adds what the free notice usually does not: annual-return-vs-T2 clarity, tracking for every corporation and extra-provincial registration in one place, escalating reminders you control on a device you check, a live status signal, and the judgement layer in the playbook.
We don't repeat that figure as fact. It appears on third-party blogs but we could not verify it on an official Corporations Canada source, which emphasises the small filing fee and the dissolution risk instead. We'd rather under-claim and be honest: the genuinely documented, genuinely serious consequence is dissolution. Confirm any penalty amount directly with the registry.
We separate what is cross-checked against official sources from what you should confirm. Federal (CBCA), Ontario and British Columbia rules are dated and sourced inside the pack. Alberta and Quebec ship as editable confirm-first defaults because the official pages require a registry-agent, My Office, joint-filing or filing-period check before a single date can be relied on. Every window is editable, because rules and fees change and differ by jurisdiction. This is a self-management aid, not legal, accounting or tax advice.
The tool tracks any number of corporations and extra-provincial registrations you own. Federal (CBCA), Ontario and British Columbia date logic is cross-checked against official sources. Alberta, Quebec and an "other province/territory" slot are also built in, but their windows ship as editable defaults you must confirm against the official registry before relying on them — the tool labels them that way.
Fair question. The current listed price is £49 (roughly CAD $85). Your card issuer or checkout provider handles currency conversion, and the checkout page shows the final amount and any tax before purchase. The product itself is Canada-specific — the billing currency is just how this store is priced.
No. It's a one-time £49 purchase. There's an optional, low-cost annual update if you want refreshed rules each year, but it is never forced.
Yes — the product was built with AI assistance, and we say so plainly. The tool's logic is deterministic date arithmetic you can inspect; the facts are sourced; and the rule-logic is intended for qualified human review before you rely on it for a high-stakes decision.
