T2 Corporate Tax Preparation, Built from a Clean Year-End
BKInk prepares T2 corporate income tax returns for Ontario corporations — accurately, on time, and from books we keep filing-ready all year. Because your year-end and your return come from the same QuickBooks Online records, there’s no gap to bridge and no surprises at filing.
Authorized by the CRA to file returns electronically (EFILE).
What’s Included in a T2 Return
Every Ontario corporation must file a T2 corporate income tax return each year, even if it had no activity. We prepare your T2 from your finalized year-end and file it electronically:
- T2 return preparation from your year-end working papers and QuickBooks Online records.
- Schedules and the GIFI prepared from your financial statements (balance sheet and income statement).
- Federal and Ontario corporate tax calculated and reconciled.
- Electronic filing (EFILE) with the CRA — secure and on time.
- A clear hand-back so you understand what was filed and what’s owing.
We prepare returns within our authorized role. BKInk does not provide audit, review, assurance, or regulated corporate tax-planning advice; where that’s needed, we’ll tell you and refer you to a qualified CPA.
Why Year-End and T2 Belong Together
A T2 is only as reliable as the year-end it’s built on. That’s why we quote T2 with corporate year-end support: we finalize the books — adjusting entries, reconciliations, working papers — and then prepare the return from those finalized numbers. One team, one set of records, one continuous process.
If your books are behind, we’ll catch them up first. Clean books make a faster, cheaper, more accurate return; messy books make the opposite. Starting early is always the better deal.

How T2 Pricing Works
T2 preparation is priced per return, by complexity. A single-activity corporation with clean books and no surprises sits at the lower end; multiple revenue streams, inventory, HST, multi-jurisdiction activity, or a year-end that needs work first move it up. We show an illustrative starting range — T2 returns start from $480, and the Year-End + T2 combination starts from $660 — and confirm your exact price after a quick file review — the same transparent, “no mystery quotes” approach we use for bookkeeping.
New clients: 50% off your first T1 or T2 tax preparation engagement with BKInk — offer ends November 20, 2026. Prices shown do not include HST.
For most incorporated clients, the Bookkeeping + Year-End + T2 bundle is the best value: clean books all year, your year-end, and your filing as one combined annual engagement. See the Pricing page for ranges and bundles.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do I have to file a T2 if my corporation had no income? Yes. Ontario corporations generally must file a T2 every year even with no activity (a “nil” return). We can prepare and file it for you.
2. Can you prepare my T2 if you don’t do my bookkeeping? Yes, but we’ll need a clean, finalized year-end to work from. If your books need work first, we’ll quote the year-end/catch-up separately so the return is built on solid numbers.
3. Are you a CPA firm? No. BKInk is a bookkeeping practice and Certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, authorized by the CRA to file returns electronically (EFILE). We prepare T2 returns within that authorized role and refer assurance or regulated tax-planning work to a CPA.
4. When is my T2 due? A corporation’s T2 is generally due six months after its fiscal year-end, with any balance owing due sooner. We’ll confirm your specific dates and build a timeline so nothing is late.
