What are all the ways someone could take an income from a company…

They could be paid a dividend from the company. This would not be on a T-4, but would be reported on a personal tax return, which should be disclosed as part of divorce proceedings. It could also be paid as a bonus if the shareholder is also an employee,or perhaps by way of issuing further stock to that person. These are again payments that will be evident on either a tax return or the corporate Financial statements, both of which must be disclosed.

They could also potentially leave the money in the corporation, and not pay out any personal amounts until the separation is settled. But this is why the court will require disclosure of any financial statements for a corporation controlled by either spouse, so that it can be seen if a spouse is trying to hoard income in a corporation or trying to divert it to another related corporation or so on. Generally speaking, there are no loopholes that will allow a person to use a corporation to escape paying proper support or a division of marital property, provided that your lawyer is diligent in demanding and reviewing all relevant financial information. The family court disclosure rules are designed to ensure someone cannot escape their obligations under the law by trying to shelter assets or income in a corporation.
