Maintenance
*If you choose to conduct your corporation's maintenance activities online, the Corporate Registry application has built-in validations to assist in ensuring a successful submission.
Annual Return
Each year, every non-profit corporation must send an annual return to the Corporate Registry.
The annual return will be sent to the corporation at the email address associated with the entity or the mailing address of its registered office at least one month before the due date.
- The Corporate Registry will not send an advance notice or final notice if the non-profit has already submitted their annual return and financial statement.
- Annual returns and financial statements that are returned for corrections must be resubmitted within 30 days from the date on the returned submission correspondence. If the annual return and financial statement is not resubmitted within this time frame, the annual return submission will expire.
- Strike off from the registry will occur 30 days from the date of the final notice or 60 days from the annual return due date, depending on the status of returned submissions.
- All entities will receive a final notice prior to becoming eligible for strike off. The final notice is sent either two weeks after the entity’s annual return due date or immediately after the expiration of an annual return that was not resubmitted within 30 days of having been returned.
- If an annual return is not received within 30 days from the final notice, the entity will be struck from the registry.
Financial Statement
Each year, every non-profit corporation must send a financial statement to the Corporate Registry showing the corporation's assets, liabilities, revenue and expenditures, together with a report of the auditor or of the review, if required.
Non-profits are required to hold an annual meeting of members not later than 18 months after incorporation and subsequently not later than 15 months after the previous annual meeting.
The financial statement must be made up to a date not more than 6 months before the annual meeting of members. The statement must be signed by one or more directors indicating it has been approved by the directors.
The financial statement and report of the auditor or of the reviewer, if required, is to be filed with the Corporate Registry not more than 30 days after the annual meeting at which it was presented. Send to each member a copy of the annual financial statement of the corporation at least 15 days before the annual meeting or, where the articles or bylaws so permit, send notice that a copy of the financial statement may be obtained from the corporation without charge.
