Frequently Asked Questions
Turning a great idea into a community force is a big step. We’re here to make the legal part easy so you can focus on the mission. Have a question? We’ve got the answers below.
Should I incorporate my non-profit Federally or Provincially?
The choice depends on where you plan to operate.
Federal Incorporation: Best if you plan to have offices or significant activities in multiple provinces. It offers national name protection and greater mobility.
Provincial Incorporation (e.g., Ontario, BC, Alberta): Ideal if your activities are localized within one province. It is often simpler for smaller, community-based organizations to manage.
How long does it take to incorporate a non-profit?
Efficiency is our priority. For most provinces like Ontario, Alberta, and Saskatchewan, we can have your registration ready in as little as one business hour. Federal and certain other provincial registrations typically take one business day.
What is the difference between a "Non-Profit" and a "Registered Charity"?
These terms are often confused:
Non-Profit Corporation: This is a legal structure that allows you to operate without the primary goal of making a profit.
Registered Charity: This is a status granted by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) after you incorporate. Only registered charities can issue official tax receipts for donations. Our incorporation service is the essential first step toward becoming a charity.
Do I need a certain number of directors to start?
Yes. In most Canadian jurisdictions, including Federal and most Provincial acts, you generally need a minimum of three directors to incorporate a non-profit. Some provinces have specific residency requirements for these directors.
Is my organization’s name protected across Canada?
If you choose Federal Incorporation, your name is protected across the country. If you incorporate Provincially, your name is only protected within that specific province. We recommend a Nuans search to ensure your name is unique and available.
What is "Extra-Provincial" registration?
If you are already incorporated in one province but want to “expand” and physically operate (hire employees or open an office) in another province, you need an Extra-Provincial registration. This ensures you are legally recognized in every jurisdiction where you do business.
Are there hidden fees in the incorporation process?
Not with us. We believe in transparency. The price you see includes the government filing fees and our expert support. No surprises—just clear steps to get your mission off the ground.
Can international founders start a Canadian non-profit?
Yes! Canada is a welcoming environment for international founders. While some provinces have “resident Canadian” requirements for directors, there are several paths (like Federal or BC incorporation) that are very friendly to international boards.
