I hope the fix will come soon. CRA says include Vacation Pay as long as it incurred in the CEWS period.

I hope the fix will come soon. CRA says include Vacation Pay as long as it incurred in the CEWS period.

 Vacation should be included in this calculation on the T4s. When can we expect this fix?

We have discovered an issue with COVID-19 reporting and T4s in the 2021.1 update for employees that you paid vacation pay when vacation pay was not retained. To correct this issue, we will be releasing another product update at the end of January.

• If you paid vacation pay when vacation was retained for all employees, you can produce your T4s as normal.
• If you paid vacation pay when vacation was not retained for some employees, please wait until you have installed the new product update before producing your T4s.

Note: You should still install 2021.1 and use it to process your payroll at the beginning of the payroll tax year to ensure that payroll calculations are accurate. 

any idea when the fix is expected? 

The notice that was send out to all registered users indicated the end of January. It takes time to make  the changes.

a notice was sent out? i didnt get anything. Just happened to double check the amounts and realized they were wrong.  Im sure lots of people will go ahead and send them in thinking that SAGE has it all figured out.  Hope they get the fix before the end of January 

Is there a way to override and edit these amounts?  My Simply will expire Jan 12 so I want to have all reports completed before then.

Thank you

Until the update is installed i am not aware of what can or cannot be over-ridden in the T4 print program. In the past the amounts in the various fields have not been available for editing.
