Canadian 2024 CPP enhanced contributions
FOR PSHCM - NA Payroll
Starting January 1st 2024, Canada will implement an enhanced CPP calculation for those with earnings over the YMPE - a tiered level YMPE(YAMPE) and enhanced percentage.
see this link - The Canada Pension Plan enhancement – Businesses, individuals, and self-employed: what it means for you - Canada.ca
Discussion/Question around 3 points:
- The examples in that link refer to annual salary, not pensionable earnings- (annualized) for the pay period; any comments?
- Does the enhanced contribution amount reduce the taxable gross to lower overall tax deducted in the pay cheque?
- for year end of 2024 - looks like the T4 will have new box of 16A for the enhanced portion of CPP contributions; but nothing is mentioned about the enhanced portion of pensionable earnings - will employers need to report this on another new box.
