DT Max T2 review
A Windows-based Canadian corporate tax tool with broad return coverage and integrated filing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
DT Max T2 is desktop corporate tax preparation software for Canadian accountants and tax professionals. It supports preparation of all types of Canadian corporate tax returns through one-page data entry, with GIFI import, synchronization, and manual entry options. The product is aimed at firms that need structured T2 preparation, electronic filing, and workflow visibility across corporate engagements.
Pricing is organized around the DT Max T2/CO-17 with EFILE plan, which provides corporate tax software with EFILE. Pricing is handled through sales, and there is no perpetual free plan. The plan’s feature set covers core return preparation as well as automatic reconciliation statement completion, interactive warnings and diagnostics, PDF creation, and electronic filing directly from the software. Up to six tax-planning scenarios give firms a way to compare planning outcomes within the same tax workflow.
The product’s breadth is its main strength. Automated related-party integration, process status tracking, and an audit trail extend it beyond basic form entry, while English and French language support suits bilingual Canadian practices. Integrations with Onvio and DT Professional Suite may fit firms already working in Thomson Reuters’ ecosystem. The trade-off is its Windows desktop deployment and narrow focus on Canadian corporate tax work. Firms prioritizing Canadian T2 efficiency should consider DT Max T2; organizations seeking a broader, cross-platform tax environment should look elsewhere.
