Election on Disposition of Property by a Taxpayer to a Taxable Canadian Corporation
 
This form is used by a taxpayer and a taxable Canadian corporation to jointly elect under subsection 85(1) where
the taxpayer has disposed of eligible property under subsection 85(1.1) to the corporation and the taxpayer
receives as consideration shares of capital stock of the corporation.
Do not use this area
   
In order to file this election, you must have a valid CRA account number. For information on how to obtain one, go
to canada.ca.
 
   
Unless otherwise indicated, all legislative references are to the federal Income Tax Act.  
   
To file this form electronically, please go to canada.ca/cra-special-elections-and-returns.
Or mail one copy of the election and related documents (if any), completed by the transferor as follows:
 
   
–  to the tax centre of the transferor  
   
–  on or before the earliest date on which any party to the election has to file an income tax return for the tax year in
which the transaction occurred (due date). This due date must consider any election under subsection 25(1)
or 99(2), and
 
–  separately from any other return
   
When many transferors elect to transfer the same property (co-ownership) or many members of the same partnership elect to transfer their partnership
interests, the elections will be processed together and should be filed:
–  to the tax centre of the transferee
–  on or before the due date, and
–  by a designated transferor to file all of the completed forms for each transferor, together with a list of all of the electing transferors. This list must contain the
name, address and social insurance number, trust account number or business number of each transferor
Find the address of the transferor and transferee's tax centre at canada.ca/tax-centres.

Part 2 – Penalty for late-filed and amended elections
 
 
  An election that is filed after its due date will be subject to a late-filing penalty. Form T2057 can be filed within 3 years after its due date if an estimate of the
penalty is paid at the time of filing. Form T2057 can also be amended or filed after the 3-year period at the minister's discretion, but a written explanation of
the reason the election is amended or late-filed must be attached for consideration by the minister and an estimate of the applicable penalty must be paid at
the time of filing.

  Amount 2C cannot exceed $8,000

  ** Daily compound interest at the prescribed rate applies to unpaid amounts, including late-filing penalties.

properties are disposed of unless you have designated the order of disposition of each depreciable property before the filing due date for this election. It may
be necessary for you to prepare the following material to complete the form: the calculation of the adjusted cost base of all transferred properties, a summary
of the method of evaluating the FMV of each property transferred; schedules supporting this election; a designation concerning the order of disposition of
depreciable property; and documentation relating to the responses to the questions below. If there is not enough space on the form, complete extra
