Who has to file a T2 return?
Resident Corporations
All corporations—including non-profit organizations, tax-exempt corporations, and inactive corporations—have to file a T2 return for every tax year, even if there is no tax payable. The only exception to this rule is a corporation that was a registered charity throughout the year.
Non-Resident Corporations
A non-resident corporation may be subject to Canadian income tax if, at any time in the year, one of the following situations applies:
■ it carried on business in Canada;
■ it had a taxable capital gain; or
■ it disposed of taxable Canadian property.
A non-resident corporation has to file a return in a number of situations, including:
■ when it has to pay Part I tax in the current year or would
have to pay it except for a tax treaty;
■ when it has made an election to pay Part I tax on the net amount of timber
royalty income or rental income from real property under subsection 216(4);
■ when a corporation is subject to tax under Part XIV (known as branch tax); or
■ when it has made an election to pay Part I tax on the net amount of acting
services under subsection 216.1(1).
