- To get started, go to canada.ca/my-cra-business-account and select “CRA register.”
- To validate your identity, enter your social insurance number.
- Next, enter your postal code or zip code, date of birth, and an amount you entered on one of your income tax and benefit returns from the current tax year or the previous one.
- Then select a delivery method for a CRA security code, which is required to gain full access to My Business Account.
- Depending on the delivery method you have chosen, you will be asked to confirm your current postal code or zip code or enter your email address.
- The next step will be to create a CRA user ID and password.
- Then, select and answer five security questions.
- Review and agree to the terms and conditions of use by entering your password and selecting “I agree.”
- If you have chosen to have a CRA security code issued via email, you will now be asked to contact the CRA.
- Registration is now complete until you receive your code. Once you do, log in and enter it.
- Review and agree to the My Business Account terms and conditions of use.
- Then provide your Business number.
