I am incorporated and I used The Incorporators to set up my stuff.

They were really helpful and sent me the binder with everything I needed within a week. Was about 400 bucks though.

Advice:

If you are working somewhere as a contractor you should be getting at least 20% more money that you should if you were staff due to the fact you do not get benefits or vacation time.

Don't be late on source deduction payments, the government rapes you hard.

Don't forget to add GST to your invoices because you will have to pay the government.

Get a good accountant, it is worth the money. I love know what I can write off and what I can't without having to worry.

PM with any questions if you want, I have been a contractor for a year so a lot of it is still pretty fresh in my mind.
