Saskatchewan.ca Account Help

When you create a Saskatchewan.ca Account, you'll receive an email to activate your account. Check your inbox for a verification email and click the link to activate your account. If you don't see the email, check your junk or spam folders. Once your account is active, you can log in and start using participating government services.

If you've forgotten your password, you can create a new password for your account on the Saskatchewan.ca Account Sign In. On the page, click "Forgot password?" and follow the instructions.

Check if you can log in to the service with a Saskatchewan.ca Account in the section, One username and password for participating government services.

If the service does not use Saskatchewan.ca Account, contact that service directly for help.

Make sure you sign out of your Saskatchewan.ca Account when you have finished using it, especially if you are using a public computer, such as in a library.

There are two types of Saskatchewan.ca Accounts: Individual and Business.

Privacy laws protect personal information (for individuals) differently than business information. For example, business contact information is legally considered public information, while personal contact information is not. 

An Individual Saskatchewan.ca Account allows a person to access services in a personal capacity. Some government services may need you to verify your identity before you can use it. In these cases, you’ll need to provide your SGI-issued driver’s licence or non-driver photo ID to prove your identity.

A Business Saskatchewan.ca Account allows an authorized person to connect a business or organization to an individual account. This person is assigned as the Administrator for the organization’s Saskatchewan.ca Account by default, and manages the services and users who can act on behalf of it.

The Business Saskatchewan.ca Account is best for the following legal entities:

• Sole proprietorships
• Partnerships, including limited partnership (LP) and limited liability partnership (LLP)
• Corporations, including those that end in Ltd, Inc, Limited, Corporation, or Corp.
• Trusts, including Family Trusts, Pension Plans, RRSPs, RRIFs, Account Trusts, Employer Sponsored Plans
• Extra-Provincially Registered Companies
• Saskatchewan Municipalities

Your individual account information is stored separately from your business account information.

You’ll need an Individual Saskatchewan.ca Account before you can accept a business or organization’s invitation to act on their behalf.

• If you don’t have a Saskatchewan.ca Account, you’ll need to create an Individual Saskatchewan.ca Account before you can accept the invitation.
• If you already have a Saskatchewan.ca Account, you’ll need to login to your existing Saskatchewan.ca Account to accept the invitation.

Invitations expire 30 days after they are issued.

No. A single business or organization may only be registered once by an individual who is authorized to act on behalf of it.

However, a Business Saskatchewan.ca Account allows you to invite people who may access online services on the business or organization’s behalf.

An authorized individual for the purposes of setting up a Business Saskatchewan.ca Account is defined as either:

• A sole proprietor under your own name, or
• An owner or director of a business or organization on file with Information Services Corporation (ISC) or the Canada Revenue Agency, or
• A person listed in a Saskatchewan municipality’s personnel listing as filed in the Government of Saskatchewan Municipal Directory.

You must be an authorized individual to act on behalf of your organization and willing to be its Administrator to set up a Business Saskatchewan.ca Account. The person who connects a business to a Saskatchewan.ca Account is assigned an Administrator by default. 

The following table outlines the authorized individuals who can act on behalf of organizations for the purposes of connecting a business to a Saskatchewan.ca Account.

If you’re a sole proprietor, you’ll need a Business Saskatchewan.ca Account.

A sole proprietorship is an unincorporated business that is owned by one individual. The owner of a sole proprietorship has sole responsibility for making decisions, receives all the profits, claims all losses, and does not have separate legal status from the business. Even if you haven’t registered as a business with Information Services Corporation (ISC), another province’s equivalent, or the Canada Revenue Agency, you’re still operating a business.

No. You can connect a business or organization you are authorized to act on behalf of to your existing Individual Saskatchewan.ca Account. All Business Saskatchewan.ca Accounts must be linked to an individual account so that a person can administrate on behalf of the business.

Once you’ve successfully connected the business or organization, you can switch to your business profile to use participating Government of Saskatchewan business services. Your individual account information is stored separately from your business account information.

Go to My Account > Profile to connect a business or organization to your Individual Saskatchewan.ca Account.

All Business Saskatchewan.ca Accounts must be linked to an individual account so that a person can administrate on behalf of the business.

Your individual account information is stored separately from your business account information.

How you prove the identity of your business or organization depends on the type of business you want to connect to your Saskatchewan.ca Account.

You can connect the following business and organization types to your Saskatchewan.ca Account:

• A Saskatchewan business or organization with a Business Number
• A Saskatchewan sole proprietor without a Business Number
• A Saskatchewan municipality
• An extra-provincially registered company

When you connect a business or organization to your Saskatchewan.ca Account, you’ll be asked for certain information depending on your particular scenario. The Saskatchewan.ca Account system will attempt to verify the information automatically with an authoritative source, such as Information Services Corporation or Canada Revenue Agency.

If successful, you will be able to use government business services for your organization right away. If the system is not successful, additional methods such as entering an access code mailed to the verified address or speaking with a Saskatchewan.ca Account Support Analyst may be used. This will add additional processing time to connecting your business before you can be verified to use government business services for your organization.

Typical Saskatchewan businesses or organizations with a business number include:

• Sole proprietorship, a business with only one owner
• Partnerships, including limited partnership (LP) and limited liability partnership (LLP)
• Corporations, including those that end in Corporation, Corp., Incorporated, Inc., Limited, Ltd. and the following corporations: Non-profit Corporation, Co-operatives, Credit Unions, Banks (domestic/foreign), Extra-Provincial Insurers, Extra-Provincial and New West Partnership Corporations, Treasury Crowns, CIC Crown Corporations, Federal Crowns
• Trusts, including Family Trusts, Pension Plans, RRSPs, RRIFs, Account Trusts, Employer Sponsored Plans
• Legislated entities as follows: Condominium Corporation, School Divisions, and Saskatchewan Indian Bands
