!!Current Year End Changes
__New for 2018__ \\
The High Line RPT4W and RPT4AW programs generate the form boxes, as well as the instructions on the reverse side. __Pre-printed forms are no longer required.__
The Canadian Government does not require employees to provide consent. As such, employees do not have to give consent in order to get their T4 forms online. \\ \\
__New BET4 self service form__! Displays a pdf copy of an employee's T4. This function is more performant than the RET4 function, as it the windward report server is not utilized. \\
RET4 is still available for organizations who prefer to use it. \\ \\
The Electronic Consent logic has been removed, which means the employees do not have to give consent in order to get their T4/Releve 1 forms online. Organizations can now print the forms for selected employees using the new report parameter 'Status Type' and other existing report filters.
__Code 37 - Employee home relocation loan deduction__\\
For 2018 and subsequent taxation years, the employee home relocation loan deduction has been eliminated. This change was announced in the 2017 federal budget. \\ \\
__Elimination of Code 70 - Municipal officer's expense allowance__\\
For 2019 and subsequent taxation years, non-accountable allowances paid to members of legislative assemblies and certain municipal officers will be fully included in their income. The use of code 70 will therefore no longer be needed. \\ \\
__Code 128 - Veteran's benefits eligible for pension splitting__\\
Enter amounts received in the year for a retirement income security benefit paid to the individual under Part 2 of the Veterans Well-being Act. Also, report the amount in box 016. \\ \\

__Setup – RET4__\\
For RET4 2019:
# Run RPYEC
# RPGRC – note the gvt run# and the _HL.xml
# Ensure that the _HL.xml is on the directory used for both RPGRC and RPT4W
#IMST – set up the gvt run# that exists on the _HL.xml on the EE_T4_GVT_RUN preference
#RPT4W – use the _HL.xml and fill in with the same directory, data should be populated in the UT tables and show on the T4 form
#RET4 will default with 2019 and then launch
\\
For RET4 2018 and previous years
# Do NOT run RPYEC
# Do NOT run RPGRC – but note the 2018 _HL.xml and take note of the gvt run# from this file
#Ensure that the 2018 _HL.xml is on the directory used for RPT4W
#IMST – set up the gvt run# that exists on the 2018 _HL.xml on the EE_T4_GVT_RUN preference
#RPT4W – use the 2018 _HL.xml and fill in with directory that has the 2018 _HL.xml file, data should be populated in the UT tables and show on the T4 form
#RET4 will default with 2019, type in 2018 and then launch
__Setup – BET4__\\
For organizations that wish to use the BET4 process, the implementation steps below must be followed:
#The new function “BET4” MUST be added to the appropriate menu and provide execution rights to respective role and/or user
#The ‘T4_GVT_RUN’ lexicon is used to identify the government runs that will be available to the user, to select and print their T4 forms. Organizations should always maintain this record to ONLY have the official government run record.
*To update the lexicon, on the IMLN form, for the Lexicon Name ‘T4_GVT_RUN’, enter a unique value in the ‘Saved Value’ field, such as '01' and enter the Government Run number in the ‘Displayed’ value field.
