General questions
- Where can I find my pay stub?
- An electronic version of your pay stub is available on the MyConcordia portal. Choose Employee self service > My HR prolile >. Under the EMPATH menu choose "my empath" > earnings > paystub. You can click on any line to see the details for the pay.
- I have moved. How can I advise you of my new address?
- You can change your address on the MyConcordia portal. Choose Employee self service > My HR prolile >. Under the EMPATH menu choose "my empath" > personal > contacts.
- I've changed my bank account. How do I inform you?
- A voided blank cheque attached to the Direct Deposit form must be sent to our mailing address at 1455 De Maisonneuve West, FB-1130, Montreal, QC, H3G 1M8.
- I have been working for several weeks and have not been paid yet. What can I do?
- Ask your manager about the status of your paperwork. They will follow up with the appropriate person in HR.
- My salary is not accurate. When I multiply my bi-weekly gross earnings appearing on my pay stub by 26, there are a couple of hundred dollars missing. Is there a mistake?
- No, there is no mistake. At Concordia University, we work 260, 261 or 262 days per year (June 1 to May 31), and therefore your gross amount has to be multiplied by 26.0, 26.1 or 26.2 respectively depending on the number of working days per year.
- I am a student and this will be my only income for the whole year... How do I have less taxes deducted from my pay?
- Please download the appropriate federal and provincial tax forms in the HR forms section under payroll, fill them and sign them and mail them to the Payroll unit in the Department of Human Resources . Our mailing address is 1455 De Maisonneuve West, FB-1130, Montreal, QC, H3G 1M8.
T4 and Relevé information for active employees
- The gross income reported in Box A on my Relevé 1 is not the same as the amount shown in Box 14 on my T4. Which figure is correct?
- Both amounts are correct. The amount shown in Box A on your Relevé 1 includes the amounts in Box J and Box L of your Relevé 1, whereas the amount shown in Box 14 on your T4 only includes the amount in Box 40 of your T4. (The University paid portion of Health/Vision/Dental Insurance premium, Box J on your Relevé 1, is not considered a taxable benefit by Revenue Canada and this amount is therefore not included in Box 14).
- What is the amount in Box J on my Relevé 1?
The amounts in Box J represents the University paid portion of the Health Insurance premium for Permanent Full-time and Permanent Part-time employees enrolled in the Health Insurance plan.
If you are a Senior Administrator or an employee covered by the CUFA or the ACUMAE collective agreements, the amount in Box J also represents the University paid portion of the premiums for Visioncare and/or Dental Insurance, if you are enrolled for these benefits.
- What if there is nothing shown in Box J on my Relevé 1?
- This would mean that you were not enrolled for the above-mentioned insurance benefits during the taxation year.
- On my Relevé 1, what is the amount in Box L?
- The amount shown in Box L reflects the premium paid by the University for Basic Life Insurance (1 x salary) for all Permanent Full-time employees.
- What is the amount in Box 40 on my T4?
- The amount in Box 40 reflects the premium paid by the University for Basic Life Insurance (1 x salary) for all Permanent Full-time employees.
- What is the amount shown in Box N on my Relevé 1 and Box 46 on my T4?
- The amount shown represents your payroll deductions for Centraide and/or Annual Giving.
- I only received one copy of the Relevé 1 slip. In other years, we received two copies. Is this an error?
- No, it is not an error. As of 2012, you are no longer required to send a copy of any Relevé slips, receipts or any other supporting documents when you file your tax return. You are required to keep them in case you are asked to show them.
