Every corporation incorporated, amalgamated or continued in Ontario is required to file an annual return with Ontario's Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (“Ministry”) within six months after the end of its tax year (“Annual Return”).

You can file Articles of Revival online if you received a company key giving you authority over the corporation (see Notice – Company Key). You can file directly with the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (Ministry) through ServiceOntario at our website .ontario.ca/businessregistry.

The Ontario Annual Return is a document filing required by all Ontario corporations to submit an updating listing of the corporate details with the province of Ontario. This is mandatory for each existing corporation even when no changes have occurred since the previous annual return submission.

An annual return is a corporate legal requirement and is completely separate from any filing obligations you may have with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). The annual return is basically just your way of notifying Corporations Canada that your company is still active. Filing is easy, and you can do it online.

What is a revival? A revival allows a corporation dissolved under the CBCA to be restored to its previous legal position in the same manner and to the same extent as if it had not been dissolved. A corporation is revived on the date appearing on the Certificate of Revival.

What is a Federal Annual Return? A Federal Annual Return (Form 22) is a mandatory filing requirement by all active corporations incorporated, amalgamated or continued with the federal government through Corporations Canada.

If your corporation is ceasing operations, is already is no longer in business, or was never actively used, it must submit a filing called “articles of dissolution” with the government in which your corporation was formed in order to formally dissolve your corporation or non-profit corporation.

An annual return is not a financial document — it's a record of publicly available information about your company that appears on the Companies Register. That information, which includes your address and details of directors and shareholders, must be updated each year through an annual return.
