Affordable Support on Choosing a Business Entity Structure in Ontario
Business Entity Selection is usually among the very first practical decisions taken by the newly formed enterprise, and it’s more difficult to reverse than many owners think. A sole proprietorship, a partnership, or a corporation come with distinct taxation, liabilities, and flexibility – and just because something is easier to establish doesn’t necessarily make it the best choice in the long run.
At Beta Taxes, we provide affordable and straightforward business entity structure consultations for newly established or expanding enterprises all across Toronto and the GTA.

Why the Need for Holding Company Structuring Should Come Up Early
Holding company structuring is not an approach reserved solely for mature companies with a long history behind them. In case your company is supposed to grow, accumulate assets through it or sell it some day in the future, making a decision about holding company structure during the company incorporation stage rather than later will greatly simplify matters: asset protection, taxation flexibility and simpler options for having a partner joining the company or selling it in the future.
The same considerations apply to your Corporate Share Structure. The share classification at the incorporation stage will determine whether you are going to be able to distribute income among the family members, have investors join your company or sell it tax-efficiently in the future.

FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions
How will I know when to incorporate or remain as a sole proprietor?
This will depend on the level of profits earned and how much exposure there is to liability. In most cases, we recommend incorporation when profit levels increase and when liability protection is required. This will require an analysis of your figures.
How is federal incorporation different from provincial incorporation?
Federal incorporation offers name protection across Canada with the opportunity to operate with the same name in all provinces, whereas provincial incorporation is relatively simple and cheap in case you intend to operate in Ontario alone. We assist in determining which would be appropriate.
Do I need a holding company when I first incorporate?
A holding company may not necessarily be needed when first incorporated, but planning in advance could save the cost of restructuring in future cases where you intend to retain profits, hold investments, or plan to sell the company in future.
What is share structure, and why is it important in incorporation?
Share structure refers to the different classes of shares issued by your corporation and the associated rights such as voting, dividend, and rights to proceed on liquidation. Your share structure will determine whether you can split your income with your family member and whether you will bring in any investor.
Can I change my business structure at a later stage if my needs change?
Yes, but restructurings are always more complicated and expensive than choosing the right structure initially. We can assist you in case of a restructure, but you should be aware that the correct initial choice can save costs where possible.
Do you collaborate with our lawyer for incorporation?
Yes, because incorporation and entity structuring are always related to the tax and legal aspects, we cooperate with your lawyer to ensure that the structuring will fit both.
Is advice concerning entity structuring only relevant when setting up a new business?
No, we also assist businesses which are already established and evaluate whether their entity structuring still suits them after growth, or before an important step such as admission of a new partner or investor.
How much does incorporation and entity structuring advice cost?
The cost depends on the complexity of your situation. Once we have the overview of your business and its goals, we will provide you with a fixed quotation.
Are you able to help me with professional corporation structuring?
Yes, there are special provisions concerning professional corporations depending on your governing authority.
What information do you need to get started?
Information about your business operations, income level, growth goals and intentions regarding investors/investment. We will ask for detailed information after analysing your situation.
