Corporate Filings, Done Properly
Every incorporated business in Canada must file a T2 corporate income tax return every year — even with no activity. Jane's Ledger prepares T2 returns for incorporated trades, contractors, professionals, and small companies in Prince George and across Northern BC, from the underlying bookkeeping through to the filed return.
Northern BC businesses shouldn't have to choose between big-firm prices and mailing their records to an office in Vancouver. You get a local professional — with CRA audit experience — who understands how industry-driven businesses in this region actually operate.

Bookkeeping and Tax, Under One Roof
A T2 is only as good as the books behind it. Because Jane's Ledger also provides monthly bookkeeping, your records and your return are prepared by the same person — no year-end scramble handing a shoebox from a bookkeeper to a separate tax preparer, and no surprises in March about what happened in July.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is a corporate tax return due in Canada?
A T2 must be filed within six months of your corporation's fiscal year-end. Taxes owing, however, are generally due two or three months after year-end depending on your situation — so waiting until the filing deadline to look at your numbers can mean interest charges.
Does my corporation need to file if it had no activity?
Yes. Every resident corporation must file a T2 annually, even with zero revenue. Inactive corporations that skip filings accumulate problems with the CRA that are much easier to prevent than to fix.
What records do you need to prepare my T2?
Your bank and credit card statements, sales and expense records, prior-year return and financial statements, and details of any assets bought or sold. If your books are behind, we offer catch-up bookkeeping to rebuild them first.
Can you fix late or unfiled corporate returns?
Yes. Multiple years of unfiled T2s are more common than you'd think. We rebuild the records year by year, file the outstanding returns, and get the corporation back into good standing.
Should I pay myself salary or dividends?
It depends on your income needs, payroll setup, and long-term plans — there's no universal answer. It's exactly the kind of question we work through with you during the year, not just at filing time.
Do you work with businesses outside Prince George?
Yes. Corporate clients across Northern BC — Quesnel, Vanderhoof, Mackenzie, the Peace Country — are served remotely with secure document sharing and regular check-ins by phone or video.
