# How to read a record — Canadian corporations facing dissolution for non-compliance

> What the record is, what the status means, and what is left out.

## How to read these records

### Which corporations

Business corporations under the Canada Business Corporations Act whose current status is “Active - Dissolution
Pending (Non-compliance)” and whose last annual return was filed for 2022 or later. Not-for-profit corporations,
cooperatives, numbered companies, schools, health and care providers are left out.

### It can still be stopped

A corporation that files its overdue annual returns is usually kept on the register.

### What is not here

Names of directors or any individual. Street addresses. Corporations already dissolved.

**Director of a corporation facing dissolution?**

The internal data of a company that employed 50 people or more (Slack or Microsoft Teams archive, documentation, project histories) may still have value after it has stopped operating.
