Tax and financial guidance for incorporated professionals in Canada

A professional corporation is the company an individual practitioner — a lawyer, doctor, dentist, therapist, realtor, or consultant — uses to earn their professional income. It changes how that income is taxed, and the decisions made inside it compound year over year.

These articles explain those decisions in plain language: salary versus dividends, retained earnings and the passive income rules, personal services business (PSB) exposure, T2 filing deadlines, and what to expect from a CPA. Written for Canadian incorporated solopreneurs earning $250K–$2M.
