FAQS
I run a small business -- do I have to register for a GST/HST number?
It all depends on the business. If your company’s annual turnover is less than $30,000 a year, you don’t need to get a GST/HST number immediately. However, it is advisable to register for one as soon as possible to avoid any problems further down the line. If you want to know your company’s registration date, it will be the day you request your GST/HST account.
Does the nature or structure of my small business affect how I file my taxes?
The type of structure your business has does affect how you do your taxes and report your income. There are three basic configurations for a company, i.e., sole proprietor, partnerships, and corporations. Ensure you understand which one you’re operating to avoid any problems with your taxes in the future.
Is my business number (BN) the same as my GST number?
Your goods and services tax number (GST) is also known as a business number (BN). It’s a nine-digit number you receive from the Canadian Revenue Agency and helps the tax authorities identify your company. You’ll also be required to put it on any invoices you generate as part of your trading.
