I have just resigned from the board of directors of a corporation, can I sign and file the required Form 6 (Changes Regarding Directors)?
The Form 6 (Changes Regarding Directors) can be signed by any individual who has the relevant knowledge of the corporation and who is authorized to do so by the directors. Subsection 113(1) of the CBCA requires that a corporation shall, within fifteen days after a change is made among its directors, send to the Director a notice, in the form that the Director fixes, setting out the change. Since the resignation is prior to the signature and filing of Form 6 – Changes Regarding Directors, the resigning director cannot sign any documentation/notices in that capacity. However, if the director is also an officer for the same corporation he can sign the form in that capacity.
