Sole Proprietor 🇨🇦
Cra payment April 30th
There's a misconception.
June 15th is when you have to file your tax return if you're a sole proprietor.
April 30th is when you have to pay.
So if you're a sole proprietor out there, you still have 22 days to at least make the payment to CRA
And you can file your tax return June 15th.
Just make sure that you pay before April 30th.
Do an estimate overpay so that interest is not accruing on May 1st.
