InstalMethodThere are currently three methods available to determine the instalments of a trust:
Government method (No calculation method) The instalments for March 15 and June 15, 2023, will each equal one-quarter of the 2021 net tax owing. For the September 15 and December 15, 2023, instalments, the total amount of the March and June 2023 instalments is subtracted from the 2022 net tax owing. The remaining amount is then divided equally for the September 15 and December 15, 2023, instalments. Provided the payments indicated on the form are made by the due dates, no interest will be charged, even if the amount of the payments subsequently proves to be insufficient.
Prior year option Each instalment payment will be one-quarter of the 2022 net tax owing.
Current year option (estimated) These options allow you to choose the method to be used for determining instalments based on your preference. This feature is available in the user's defaults. To change the instalment method indicated in the user's defaults for a particular client, use the keyword InstalMethod in that client's file. This will override the user's defaults and determine the instalment method based on the InstalMethod entry now appearing in the file. Whether or not a taxpayer is subject to instalments depends on the threshold of net tax owing.
THRESHOLD = Net-Tax-Owed If the threshold is greater than $3,000 ($1,800 in Quebec), the inter-vivos trust is subject to instalments.
