Review Payroll Summary
The payroll’s summary is broken down into three sections:
- Payroll Obligation
- Employee Net Pay
- CRA Remittances
- Revenu Québec Remittances
- Other Remittances
- The Provincial Health and Education Tax (EHT/EPT/QHSF) item will only populate if the payroll is done in a province that requires an employer-paid heath tax. Learn more.
Payroll Obligation
A payroll’s obligation is the Total employee net pay + CRA Remittance + Other deductions.
In this section, it's important to review the Account Debit line, because this is the amount that will be withdrawn from your company bank account when the payroll is processed.
Important note on payroll deadlines
If payroll is run after the payroll deadline, the payment method for all employees will be automatically changed to cheque and you'll be responsible for issuing the payments by cheque.
This is done because Humi requires 3-4 business days to process your payroll, and prevent employees from being paid late.
If you missed your deadline, contact support before processing the payroll to see if we can extend the deadline for you.
The deduction amounts, as well as reimbursements, will still be debited and processed through Humi Payroll. Log in to access our 24/7 chatbot with live support available to admins Monday to Friday from 9 am–5 pm ET.
If the payroll is run after its remittance due date, Humi Payroll will not debit or remit any payroll obligations. Payroll administrators are encouraged to remit directly to the CRA.
For more information on late payments please reach out to contact support. Log in to access our 24/7 chatbot with live support available to admins Monday to Friday from 9 am–5 pm ET.
Employee Net Pay
This section displays the total amounts that will be paid by direct deposit and by cheque. Payroll administrators can use these amounts to determine whether manual actions are needed.
Cheque - Amount that should be paid manually by cheque to employees
Direct Deposit - Amount that is automatically processed through Humi Payroll
CRA Remittances
This section is where you'll find the breakdown of all statutory payroll deductions that will be remitted to the CRA on your behalf based on your remittance schedule.
Verifying your amounts
We highly recommend that you verify that all the numbers shown here are accurate because under-remittances may result in penalties and interests imposed by the CRA.
Revenu Québec Remittances
This section is where you'll find the breakdown of all statutory payroll deductions that will be remitted to the RQ on your behalf based on your remittance schedule.
If you owe any employer-paid health taxes in Quebec, they will also show up in this table.
Verifying your amounts
We highly recommend that you verify that all the numbers shown here are accurate because under-remittances may result in penalties and interests imposed by the RQ.
Other Remittances
The items in this section will only show if there are amounts owing. There are a few different remittances that can be detailed here. We’ll go over each one below. To get a closer look at these amounts, click the Details button in the upper-right corner of the card in Humi.
About remittances
Humi does calculate and remit:
- The Occupational Health & Safety portions of CNESST
- All portions of QHSF
If you have these amounts owing in Québec, Humi will automatically remit them to RQ with each pay run.
Humi doesn’t calculate or remit:
- Employer obligations on training expenditures under the Workforce Skills Development and Recognition Fund (WSDRF)
- Any other contributions related to Labour Standards that is required under CNESST
If you have these amounts owing in Québec, they must be remitted manually.
Workers’ Compensation
Humi can help you configure and comply with the Workers' Compensation Benefit (WCB), Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), or Committee on Standards, Equity, Health and Safety at Work (CNESST) standards in your province or territory. After you’ve set up the workers' compensation rates in Humi, this section will show any amounts owed with each payroll.
These amounts can be found in the Other Remittances section, titled Workers’ Compensation. Click on the Details button to see an in-depth breakdown of the amounts.
Employer Payroll Tax
Depending on the province in which employees are paid, the payroll may contain information on employer-paid health tax obligations. Learn more about EHT/EPT/QHSF/QHSF.
These amounts can be found in the Other Remittances section, titled Provincial Health & Education. Click on the Details button to see an in-depth breakdown of the amounts.
These are estimates only
The calculated Provincial Health & Education amounts are only estimates since each employer may have already remitted payroll taxes in the past or has applicable carried-over tax credits.
Finish reviewing
Once the payroll information has been entered and you've finished reviewing the payroll summary, we highly recommend that payroll administrators export a Payroll Register report for the period to confirm that all line items are calculated accurately. Learn more about the Payroll Register report here.
Once you're sure that all records are set up accurately, click the Complete & Pay button in the bottom right.
Woohoo! We're almost done!
Humi says the payroll isn’t locked?
If you have the Time Off/Time Tracking & Payroll Integration enabled, you’ll need to lock your hours before you can click Complete & Pay. To learn how, click here.
