Bois-des-Filion: a small town of local businesses

Bois-des-Filion is a compact north shore municipality, with a residential population, a few commercial arteries and a fabric of small businesses: trades, professional services, esthetics, maintenance, specialty retail.

What to do in the weeks after incorporating

Forming the corporation is only the first step. Four actions follow immediately, and forgetting them causes most of the complications we see.

Open a bank account in the corporation's name, before collecting your first client payment. Register for sales taxes if your revenue requires it. Transfer or take out insurance in the corporation's name, since a personal policy does not cover commercial use. And transfer existing contracts, leases and permits, which often requires the other party's consent.

Add keeping the minute book from the first year, often postponed and costly to catch up on.

Provincial or federal for a Bois-des-Filion business?

For a local clientele, the provincial regime is simpler and cheaper to maintain. It is the default choice for a small service business.

Do not mix accounts

The simplest and most often broken rule: the corporation's money is not yours. Every dollar leaving must have an identifiable reason, salary, dividend or expense reimbursement. Mixing complicates bookkeeping and weakens the separate-entity argument.

Your obligations once incorporated

Annual updating declaration, a current minute book, a separate corporate tax return and resolutions recording major decisions.

Common questions from Bois-des-Filion entrepreneurs

Can I keep using my personal account at first? Strongly discouraged. Open the business account before the first invoice.
