The Tax Filings report section is where you’ll find all of your current and previous year T4s, T4As and RL-1s. There are both Interim and Final copies of these documents so that you can view the interim versions for review, or download the final versions for submission.
1 – T4/RL1 Type – this specifies the type of tax document it is, either T4, T4A or RL-1, as well as its status, either Interim (not yet completed/published) or Final (completed/published). It will also specify between amended versions and originals.
2 – Report Year – the year that the tax document reports on. Generally, you will see that the year it was created (ie. 2021) is different than the report year (2020).
3 – View/Download – your tax documents are available to view or download. As pictured above, your interim reports can only be viewed as they are not yet final. For all final copies, you will have two download options:
For submission to government will include the summary along with the employee slips (for Original versions only), whereas for your employees, it will not include the summary and have two copies of each employee’s slip per page.
