Starting a part-time home business can be a great way to supplement your regular income and provide you with some tax opportunities.
A home business could be almost anything that gives you an expectation of earning income. Most ideas would fall under either selling a product or service. Your business could be fixing computers or selling items on eBay. Even a blog counts as a home business as the advertisements provide income.
The simplest way to register as a business is to start a sole proprietorship. In Alberta, if you are operating under your own name, you don’t need to register your business name. If you want to operate under a trade name, you’ll need to have the name approved and registered with the Corporate Registry. Other provinces may have different rules regarding registering a business name. Please check your provincial government’s website to verify what you need to do.
