Concept: Year-End Form Corrections (CAN)

Concept: Year-End Form Corrections (CAN)

You might need to resolve errors or make adjustments to original year-end forms submitted to Canada Revenue Service and Revenue Quebec. Workday creates these kinds of corrected forms:
  • Amended
  • Canceled
  • Additional
Amended
You make adjustments for an employee who received a year-end form that was incorrect. Workday then prints:
  • AMENDED
    on the T4, T4A, T4A-RCA, and NR4 forms
  • MODIFIE
    on the RL-1 and RL-2 forms
  • Code
    A
    on the RL-1 and RL-2 forms and the forms:
    • Include all RL-1 or RL-2 data, not only the changed data.
    • Have a new serial number, which includes the original serial number.
    • Amended-Overflow
      on the NR4 form when you amend NR4 data for a worker with an
      Original-Overflow
      form.
You edit a worker’s name effective on or before December 31 after submitting the reports for that tax year. When you create corrected data, Workday creates amended T4, T4A, T4A-RCA, and NR4 forms with the updated name.
Canceled
You adjust data for workers who incorrectly received a year-end form, or whose form has the wrong Social Insurance Number (SIN). Workday updates the forms:
  • Creates an additional form with the corrected or new SIN.
  • Prints
    CANCELLED
    on the T4, T4A, T4A-RCA, and NR4 forms.
  • Prints
    ANNULÉ
    and
    D
    on the reprinted RL-1 and RL-2 forms.
You edit a worker's name effective on or before December 31 after submitting forms for that tax year. Workday creates:
  • Canceled RL-1 and RL-2 forms with the previous name.
  • New RL-1 and RL-2 forms with the updated name when you create corrected data.
Workday prints
Cancelled-Overflow
on the NR4 form when you cancel NR4 data for a worker with an
Original-Overflow
form.
Additional
You make adjustments for an employee:
  • Who didn’t previously receive a year-end form.
  • Whose form has the wrong Social Insurance Number (SIN).
Workday then prints:
  • ADDITIONAL
    on the T4, T4A, T4A-RCA, and NR4 forms.
  • Code
    R
    on both Original and Additional RL-1 and RL-2 forms.
