What this does

When a period had no pay, CRA and Revenu Québec may still expect a nil remittance to be reported. SeroPayroll lists these periods so you do not miss them.

Steps

  1. Go to Remittances.
  2. Find a row marked Nil or "nil remittance to report".
  3. Open it. The page says "No pay in this period. Report a nil remittance to {agency} by phone or online; nothing is paid. Mark it reported once done."
  4. Report it to the agency.
  5. Choose Mark reported.
  6. Enter the date and any confirmation number. The status becomes Reported.

Which periods are listed

  • For CRA, one row for each payroll account that has had pays. The periods run from the first pay to today.
  • For Revenu Québec, rows appear when a Revenu Québec number is on file.
  • The dashboard shows "Nil remittance to report by {date}".

Good to know

  • If you later enter a pay dated in a nil period, the row becomes an ordinary remittance.
  • A nil row has no amount to pay.
  • Your agency decides if a nil report is needed for your account. Follow its letter.
  • Mark reported can be reopened.
