New Client
When using TaxCycle, i have entered the BN (confirmed to be Federally incorporated) and the jurisdiction as AB.
TaxCycle is asking for AB Corp access number and SIC.
I believe these are non-applicable.
Do I just override?
What about AB Small Business Deduction… claim?
Google tells me that an AT1 is required.
Anything else that is important for Federally incorporated companies?
When you incorporate federally and start business in Alberta, you need to register here provincially and obtain CAN (corp access number) with which you can file Alberta Corp Tax Return i.e. AT1, since in Alberta you need to file a separate return and pay provincial taxes under your CAN unlike ON/BC/MB where no provincial returns are filed separately.
Hope that helps.
Thank you. I appreciate the help.

What about SK? 
PST in SK kills (they charge on financial products as well) else all good with SK as well.
Would be happy to assist if need services there.
Hi Tim
Yes - I believe you talking about SIC gir Alberta corp tac - which refers to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code. You must provide this 4-digit numeric code on Line 028 of your Alberta Corporate Income Tax Return (AT1) to officially classify your business’s primary nature of operations.
Just like t2125 self employee reporting needs classifications fir what type business they do - 6 numbers though -
Hope that helps but I working off of limited info
Whether the corporation is registered provincially or federally is mostly irrelevant (for us tax practitioners). The corporate taxes work the same, no matter how or where the corp is legally registered.
If the “head office” is located in Alberta, the corp will need to file both a T2 (to CRA) and an AT1 (to TRA - Alberta Treasury Board).
Similarly, if the “head office” is located in Quebec, there is a separate Quebec tax return required, though I don’t know what the return is called or where you send it, because I’ve never done one.
Saskatchewan is in the process of setting up a corporate tax department as well, but the gov’t hasn’t announced a date when we will have to start filing separate provincial corporate tax returns.
