T4 Summary page 2 - filing instructions

Do you file electronically?

If you file your T4 return electronically, do not complete this summary.

The number of slips you file will determine which electronic filing format to use. For information, see www.cra.gc.ca/T4internet.

• If you file more than 500 various information slips, you must file the return electronically in extensible mark-up language (XML) on electronic media (diskette, CD, or DVD) or by Internet file transfer.
  
  
• If you file more than 3,500 various information slips (5 MB), you must file the return on electronic media.
  
  To file your return using T4 Web forms, T4 Desktop application, or Internet file transfer, you need a Web access code (WAC), which is pre-printed at the top of your personalized T4 Summary. If you don't have your WAC, call our help desk at 1-877-322-7849.
  
  My Business Account (MyBA) allows you to file your T4 return over the Internet without a Web Access Code. You can file using T4 Web forms or Internet file transfer. Log in to MyBA using your epass User ID. It may take up to 5 business days to obtain your epass. For details, see www.cra.gc.ca/mybusinessaccount.
  
  

  Do you file on paper?

  Complete this form using the instructions in the RC4120, Employer's Guide - Filing the T4 Slip and Summary.
  
  The employer's name and Business Number have to be the same as shown on your PD7A remittance form.
  
  If you have not paid the total deductions reported, include the balance with this completed return. If you have a balance due, you may have to pay a late-payment penalty.
