Payroll remittances to the CRA

Each pay run creates amounts you owe the CRA: income tax withheld, plus CPP and EI (both the employee and the employer shares).

1. Go to Payroll → Remittances.
2. Set your CRA remitting schedule (most small employers remit monthly, by the 15th of the following month).
3. Each period shows the amount owing, the due date and what's been paid.
4. After you pay through your bank or CRA My Business Account, click Record payment with the date, amount, account and confirmation number.

The bell reminds you when a remittance is due within 14 days, and again if it's overdue. Late remittances carry CRA penalties.
