Generate T4
Once the T4 are generated, Nubis offers you 3 options:
Print
A PDF file will be downloaded and will contain the T4 of every employees. Each page contains two T4. Let’s take the example of two employees: Éric and Sébastien. The PDF will have 4 pages which are as follow:
First page
T4 for Éric and T4 of Sébastien –> copy to send to the government if the transmission isn’t electronic.
Second page
Two T4 for Éric on which the account number of the employer is hidden –> copy of the employee.
Third page
Two T4 for Sébastien on which the account number of the employer is hidden –> secondary copy of the employee.
Fourth page
T4 for Éric and T4 for Sébastien –> copy of the employer.
Print Cumulative
A PDF file will be downloaded and will contain, on a T4, the sum of the T4 of every employees. This will allow you to complete the T4 Summary if you don’t transmit the T4 electronically.
Download
A file will be downloaded, which you can then send to the government by clicking on the link displayed in the Web page, entitled: Canada Revenue Agency Portal.
The generated file contains both copies of T4 to transmit to the government and the T4 Summary. You must still print copies for employees and you as needed. In the above example, you would simply print the pages 2-4 of the generated PDF file (when you clicked on the “Print” button).
Generate R1 (Quebec)
Once the RL-1 are generated, Nubis will offer you 4 options:
Print
A PDF file will be downloaded and will contain the RL-1 of every employees. Each page contains only one RL-1. Let’s take the example of two employees: Éric and Sébastien. The PDF will have 4 pages as follow:
First page
RL-1 for Éric –> copy to send to the government if the transmission isn’t electronic.
Second page
RL-1 for Sébastien –> copy to send to the government if the transmission isn’t electronic.
Third page
RL-1 for Éric on which there is no QR code and there is the description of every cases of RL-1 –> copy of the employee
Fourth page
RL-1 for Sébastien on which there is no QR code and there is the description of every cases of RL-1 –> copy of the employee
Employer’s copy and 2nd employee’s copy
RL-1 contains no copy for the employer. Also, it’s expected that you print 2 copies for each employee so that, just as with T4, the employee sends one of its two copies to the government during the production of his income tax declaration and keeps another for his records. So you just have to print the PDF twice to keep the first page for your records and give two copies to your employees.
Print Cumulative
A PDF file will be downloaded and will contain, on a RL-1, the sum of the RL-1 of every employees. This will allow you to complete the RL-1 Summary (RLZ-1.S) which must be completed and sent to the government by mail, even if you transmit the RL-1 electronically.
Download
A file will be downloaded, which you can send to the government.
You still need to print copies for employees to give them and manually complete and submit the form RLZ-1.S-V to the government.
Transmit to the government
RL-1 will be sent directly to the government.
You still need to print copies for employees to give them and manually complete and submit the RLZ-1.S-V to the government.
