Licensing a professional corporation in British Columbia allows you to take advantage of various tax benefits and tax planning strategies that are available following incorporation. The lawyers at Morris Law will work with you and your accountant to ensure that the structure of your professional corporation is set up in a way which allows you to take full advantage of these benefits, while ensuring the requirements of your profession set by the various colleges, governing bodies, and legislation (such as the Health Professions Act) are met. Your accountant may also recommend incorporating a Holding Company, which may own shares in your professional corporation.
