Payroll in British Columbia
Built for how British Columbia firms work
From Lower Mainland restaurants to Okanagan wineries and Island trades, B.C. firms juggle many small payrolls with different pay schedules.
BooksAuto keeps every client in its own company, with its own pay frequency, remitter type and cheque numbers. When the client is in British Columbia, BooksAuto applies the CRA's British Columbia income tax tables and TD1BC claim amounts automatically — alongside federal tax, CPP, CPP2 and EI — and shows the math behind every cheque.
When the run is approved, you get pay stubs, cheques on your own stock or a CPA-005 direct deposit file, the payroll register and the PD7A amount with its due date. At year-end, T4 slips and the T4 Summary are exported as CRA-ready XML, and ROEs go to ROE Web.
British Columbia employers should also keep an eye on Employer Health Tax (EHT) for employers whose B.C. payroll is above the exemption; BooksAuto's year-to-date payroll totals make the figures easy to find.
