Overview of Reporting Information Cards for Canada
The Reporting Information calculation card for Canada houses critical details.
- Record of Employment
- Quebec Labour Standards
- Year-end
Record of Employment Data
The Record of Employment (ROE) is a report generated by employers when an employee has an interruption of earnings. Service Canada uses this report to determine Employment Insurance (EI) benefits. The Reporting Information calculation card captures details reported on the ROE including:
- ROE data
- Vacation pay
- Statutory holiday pay
- Other monies
- Special payments
- Comments
Quebec Labour Standards Data
The Quebec Labour Standards report is used to calculate and report employer liability for Quebec Labour Standards. Employers with employees working in Quebec are subject to the levy. If you have a Parity Committee, you must create the Reporting Information card’s Quebec Labour Standards Contribution component to capture the name in the following field:
- Parity Committee Name
Year-End Data
RL-2 Slip Information
If the amount entered in the RL-2 Additional Information Box C includes a single payment made under a registered pension plan (RPP) or a deferred profit-sharing plan (DPSP), employers report C-10 followed by the date of the payment. Use the Reporting Information card's Year-End Data component to capture this date in the following field:
- RL-2 RPP or DPSP Single Payment Date
Use the Reporting Information card's Year-End Data component to capture the fields below. These fields are available to override the source of income for an employee. Enter the RL-2 Type of Income. If none of the options apply, select 'Other plan or fund’ and enter the RL-2 Type of Plan field. This will report 'AUTRE' in the Provenance box along with Other Info code 201.
- RL-2 Type of Income
- RL-2 Type of Plan
Considerations and Prerequisites
When creating Reporting Information cards, you specify the surrogate ID of the employee’s payroll as a context to the card component. Refer to the Cloud Customer Connect topic Report – Canadian Payrolls for a report to extract this information.
You can review the Reporting Information cards on the Manage Calculation Cards page.
