Annual filing
Showing Saskatchewan. Select your province in settings.
Every society files with its province’s registry once a year. What the filing asks, when it is due, and the walk through it, province by province.
Saskatchewan’s annual return
Saskatchewan’s registry filing is the annual return. The year’s financial statements ride with it. Its clock is the fiscal year end. Both are due at the Corporate Registry seven months after it. A December 31 year end files by July 31.
File them through the Corporate Registry — Information Services Corporation, or on the form the Registry sends at least a month before the due date. The return states the corporation as it stands.
It names its mailing and registered office, its directors and officers and its main activity. It gives the count of members in each class. The filer certifies that the contents are true.
If the return is not received within sixty days of its due date, the corporation is no longer active. It is struck from the Corporate Registry.
The province charges a sales tax of its own: the PST, at six per cent. It is filed in the province’s own return. Its walk stands with the tax tasks.
Check the due date from the year end
The return runs on the fiscal year end, not on the meeting. The annual return and the financial statements are due together at the Corporate Registry seven months after the year end. A December 31 year end files by July 31.
The Registry sends the return at least a month before it is due. A return not received within sixty days of its due date leaves the corporation no longer active, struck from the Corporate Registry. Work the date out from the year end first.

Prepare the return from the books’ facts
The return carries the corporation as the books hold it. It names its legal name, its mailing and registered office, its directors and officers as they stand on the People page, the number of members in each membership class and its main activity.
The year’s financial statements ride with it — the statements the members were shown, with a director’s signed approval. The filer certifies the contents are true.
Check those facts first: a director who left in March and still stands on the list is the kind of error the registry will keep. The return is the registry’s form. What the app owes here is that its facts stand true in the books.

Send the return to the Corporate Registry
Filing is done at the Corporate Registry, not in this app. It is filed through the Corporate Registry — Information Services Corporation — the Corporate Registry application online, or on the form the Registry sent — with the facts the last step read and the financial statements riding with it.
Keep the confirmation the registry gives — the next step records it. This step is done in the world.

Record the filing in the books
Record the filing in the corporation’s governance records: a record of kind Filing, saying the annual return for the year was filed, with the day it was filed. Put the proof of filing the registry gave in the confirmation field.
Whoever keeps the books after you finds the proof here, not in a predecessor’s inbox. On the Tax page it stands with the year’s filings.
