Cancelling Slips
QuickHelps Guide - Amending and Cancelling Slips - CRA
QuickHelps Guide - Amending and Cancelling Slips - Revenu Québec
To correctly process amended or cancelled slips DO NOT import data for the amended or cancelled slips into eForms; all slips being amended or cancelled must:
- already exist within eForms
- have been submitted to CRA or Revenu Québec
- be edited manually, unless you are using the ‘Update based on linking field’ feature of eForms Enterprise
eForms will not process cancelled Revenu Québec slips if the original slip does not exist within the eForms data file.
In the event that you are required to reverse a submission already submitted to CRA or Revenu Québec, you will need to submit a Cancelled return. To do this:
- Open the desired slip(s) in eForms
- DO NOT import cancelled data into eForms; ESPECIALLY if cancelling Revenu Québec forms
- On the slip/s to be cancelled, change the slip status to indicate that it is a Cancelled slip
- CRA and Revenu Québec both require that the ONLY change made to Cancelled slips is the change of slip status to Cancelled
- DO NOT make any other changes to the slip data
- DO NOT change dollar amounts to $0.00
- DO NOT remove or modify the recipient’s name, address or SIN
- Process the XML return for the company; select “Amended” as the status of slips to include only amended slips in the submission; refer to Submit a Data Subset for details on how to submit a subset of the the total dataset
- Print the slips; select “Amended” as the status of slips to print only amended slips; refer to Submit a Data Subset for details on how to print a subset of the the total dataset
