Quick Method for Prince Edward Island sole proprietors

Prince Edward Island charges HST at 15%. PEI's economy has a significant seasonal component — tourism operators, food producers, and accommodation providers make up a large share of sole proprietors on the Island. The Quick Method is particularly well-suited to seasonal businesses because remittance is calculated on actual revenue each period: lower in slow months, proportional in peak season. A PEI tourism operator pulling in $60,000 in revenue keeps roughly $2,900 extra per year compared to zero-ITC Regular Method filing, with no receipt tracking required.

To elect the Quick Method: file Form GST74 with CRA before the first day of the reporting period you want it to apply to. Once elected, you must stay on Quick Method for at least one full fiscal year before switching back.

Who can't use Quick Method: accountants, bookkeepers, lawyers, notaries, financial advisors, and actuaries are ineligible in all provinces. Most other sole proprietors with annual taxable revenue under $400,000 qualify.
