Revenu Québec Rule to confirm

CO-17 Quebec corporate return deadline

Six months after the end of the fiscal year.

This rule could not be verified. The Revenu Québec, Enterprise Registrar and CNESST sites refuse automated access: the rule above reflects my understanding without having been checked against an official text. Confirm it with Revenu Québec before relying on it.

Who it applies to

Every corporation with an establishment in Quebec during the fiscal year. It is in addition to the federal T2, not a replacement: two returns, two confirmation numbers.

Frequently asked questions

Does the CO-17 replace the T2?
No. Quebec administers its own corporate income tax: a corporation with an establishment in Quebec files both returns, each with its own administration.
Is the registry update included?
For a corporation filing a CO-17, the annual update with the Enterprise Registrar is made with that return, without a separate confirmation number. An entity that does not file a CO-17 files it separately.
