For information to help you complete your remittance voucher, select the type of payment from the list below:

• Income tax payments for individuals
• GST/HST payments
• Payroll deductions
• Corporation income tax payments
• Non-resident tax payments

Income tax payments for individuals

Social insurance number (SIN): A T1 voucher is usually personalized with a taxpayer's information. If you use someone else's remittance voucher, then your payment will be allocated to their account instead of yours. If you use non-personalized T1 voucher, you need to enter your SIN to help us properly allocate your payment. Your SIN is used as your CRA account number.

Amount paid: Every T1 remittance voucher has a payment amount area. Enter the amount of your payment to make sure that we apply the proper payment to your account.

Instalment payments: If you are making an instalment payment, enter the tax year (calendar year the payment is to be applied against) in the "Instalment Payment" area. This will help us to allocate your payment correctly.
