corpnilfilingfor300.ca vs TurboTax
Published prices side by side. Nil T2 filing here is $300.00 plus HST per tax year. TurboTax published $175.00 on September 20, 2026.
Two Published Prices, and the Question Underneath Them
Two figures sit in the table above, each as published on the date shown. This page makes no claim about which is better value, because that turns on what a particular corporation needs and because a comparison page is not the place to argue it.
There is usually a question underneath a comparison like this one, and it is not really about either price. It is whether to drive the filing yourself or have it prepared and transmitted for you. That question has its own page: filing a nil T2 yourself against having a CPA file it sets out both routes, what each one asks of you, and where each one tends to go wrong.
That page is about the two routes and attributes nothing to any provider, which is the only honest way to write it: the published price recorded here is a figure, not a description of how the work is done.
The Comparison, Row by Row
Prices checked September 20, 2026. Our figure is our own published fee. The TurboTax figure is its published price on that date, recorded by Sharad Gondaliya, CPA, and is not a quotation.

|---|---|---|
| Published price for a nil T2 return | $300.00 plus HST per tax year | $175.00 |
| What else the published price list holds | One price. There is no tier above or below it for a nil year | Not stated in the published price we hold. |
| What the price covers | The T2 itself, GIFI Schedules 100, 125 and 141 where required, Schedule 50, Schedule 24 on a first return, Schedule 8 and loss continuity, and electronic transmission | Not stated in the published price we hold. |
| Who prepares the return | Prepared and reviewed by a CPA Ontario member before it is transmitted | Not stated in the published price we hold. |

The right-hand column holds the figure published on the date above and no more. A cell saying the published price does not state something means exactly that, not that the answer is no. The figure is fifty days old at the time of writing and its own site is the place to confirm it.
This comparison states TurboTax’s published prices and published features only, as published on September 20, 2026, and makes no claim about them beyond that. Prices change: the figure here is the one published on that date, not a quotation, and TurboTax is the place to confirm it.
What the Fee Here Covers
Since the right-hand column is a figure on its own, the useful detail on this page is what the fee here buys:
- The T2 itself, and GIFI Schedules 100, 125 and 141 where the corporation has anything to report.
- Schedule 50 for any shareholder at 10% or more, Schedule 24 on a first return, and Schedule 8 with loss continuity carried forward intact.
- Preparation and review by a CPA Ontario member before anything is transmitted.
- Transmission by a registered EFILE electronic filer, prepared and transmitted in Canada, with credentials never shared and never used offshore.
- Form T183CORP signed on a secure screen, and the CRA confirmation emailed within 3 business days.
- One price for one tax year for one corporation, with no tier above or below it.
A year that turns out not to be nil is not covered by this fee. A holding corporation with investment income, a rental corporation and a corporation that paid or received a dividend are not nil. Those are handled by Gondaliya CPA Professional Corporation at gondaliyacpa.ca at $350.00 plus HST per year.
Gondaliya CPA Professional Corporation is a registered EFILE electronic filer. Returns are prepared and transmitted in Canada. Credentials are never shared and never used offshore.

Both figures in the table are published prices on the date above. Neither is a quotation.
The route, not the brand
Whether to file it yourself or have it filed is the real question, and it has its own page on this site.
A single-shareholder corporation with one quiet year to file
Here that is one return at $300.00 plus HST per tax year, prepared and reviewed by a CPA Ontario member, with Form T183CORP signed on a secure screen and the CRA confirmation emailed within 3 business days. What the same year would involve on the other column is not something the published price we hold states, so this page does not say. The figures here illustrate the published price above and are not drawn from a client file.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference in price?
Nil T2 filing here is $300.00 plus HST per tax year. The TurboTax figure recorded on September 20, 2026 is $175.00. Both are above, as published on their dates.
When was the TurboTax price checked?
September 20, 2026, recorded by Sharad Gondaliya, CPA. Prices change, so the date sits above the table and its own site is the place to confirm the current figure.
Does the $175.00 cover the same work?
The published price we hold does not say what it covers, so this page does not claim either way. What the fee here covers is set out in full above.
Should I file it myself or have it filed?
That is the question underneath this one, and it has its own page: filing a nil T2 yourself against having a CPA file it.
Can I file a nil T2 myself?
Yes, and the return is still due within six months of the fiscal year-end either way. What the route changes is who carries the schedules, the signature and the transmission, which is what the route comparison sets out.
What is actually involved in a nil T2?
More than a zero: GIFI Schedules 100, 125 and 141 where the corporation has anything to report, Schedule 50 for a shareholder at 10% or more, Schedule 24 on a first return, and Schedule 8 with loss continuity. The required schedules checker names the ones a given year carries.
Does transmitting it myself need anything special?
Electronic filing is mandatory for most corporations, which the mandatory T2 e-filing checker settles. Here it is transmitted by a registered EFILE electronic filer and Form T183CORP is signed on a secure screen.
Is there a cheaper tier here?
No. There is one price for a nil year, and no tier above or below it.
What if my year is not nil after all?
Then this fee does not cover it. It moves to Gondaliya CPA Professional Corporation at gondaliyacpa.ca at $350.00 plus HST per year.
Where can I see the whole fee?
On the nil T2 filing cost page, which states the fee and everything inside it.
