Every nonprofit is required to maintain its corporate status with the Government of Ontario.
This page explains what forms nonprofits must file with the government to keep their corporate status and how to file them through the Ontario Business Registry (OBR).
Some forms must be filed every year; others need to be filed when certain people or things change at a nonprofit.
This page also explains what forms have to filed with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
If you incorporated before ONCA was proclaimed on October 19, 2021, your bylaws or articles may not comply with the rules explained below. You have until October 18, 2024 to transition to the new rules. Until then, the rules in your articles and bylaws continue to be valid. This is true as long they were valid before the ONCA took effect.
