Ready to file my first T2. Fiscal year end July 31, 2017 - am I using a 2016 or 2017 version of the T2? In general, is your "filing year" based on fiscal start or end?

I know this seems like a Corporate Tax 101 question, but believe it or not, nowhere on any site (including CRA) can I find which "tax year" form to choose.  So, for anyone with a non-calendar year end, and therefore the fiscal year covers two different calendar years, do I want to use the form that corresponds with the year my fiscal began in, or ended in?

Hello,

The important is the corporations year end date, the software will be marketed with the explanation that if the corporations year end falls between November 1st of a year to October 31st of the following year.  As long as the year end is between these dates this is the software for you.
