As the New Year begins, a new cycle also begins for your statutory pay deductions. Here are some of the changes you should expect to see on your mid-January pay:
Statutory Deductions
Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and Employment Insurance (EI) are income security programs sponsored by the government. All workers and employers must make mandatory contributions to these programs at specified rates up to a yearly maximum amount determined by the Government. For 2021, the CPP yearly maximum is $3,166.45 and the EI yearly maximum is $889.54. Last year you may have reached the yearly maximum for these mandatory benefits so expect to see these contributions begin again on your mid-January pay.
Pay Dates
At ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´, salaries are paid twice monthly; please see the actual pay dates on the HR web site under the calendar of events.
Your Electronic Direct Deposit Advice Notice (Pay Stub) is available on ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Central the day before the actual pay day. Access is easy. From any computer with an Internet connection, visit or click on the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Central icon on the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ homepage. Once logged in, select the ‘Employee Services’ tab, ‘Pay Information’, and ‘Direct Deposit Advice’.
TD1
If your personal tax credits have changed you should complete a new TD1. For instance, if you were claiming credits over and above the basic personal exemption for the 2020 tax year, you should complete a new 2021 TD1 form. TD1 forms can be found on our website: /hr/payroll/forms/
