Good questions.
Clear answers.

A Canadian payroll workspace for business owners and accounting firms. It keeps employee records and pay schedules, calculates payroll using the CRA’s published T4127 formulas, and prepares remittance reports, pay stubs, T4 slips and Records of Employment from payroll history.

Every province and territory except Québec. Québec payroll is not supported: it needs QPP, QPIP and Revenu Québec tables the product does not have, so a run with a Québec employee is refused rather than calculated.

From the CRA’s Payroll Deductions Formulas guide, T4127. For 2026 both the January and the July editions are built in, and each run uses the edition in force on its pay date.

Federal and provincial or territorial income tax, Canada Pension Plan contributions (including the second additional contribution, CPP2) and Employment Insurance premiums, with the employer’s CPP and EI shares and the annual maximums.

Weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly and monthly pay schedules, for both hourly and salaried employees. Hours can be recorded on timesheets for each pay period.

Vacation pay can be paid out on each pay or accrued into a balance. Payroll uses jurisdiction-specific vacation rules and supports an employee rate override. Review the applicable rules and any override before publishing a run.

Yes. An off-cycle run covers money paid outside the regular schedule, such as a bonus, a correction, a final pay or a retroactive adjustment.

Employer health tax and workers’ compensation assessments are available as employer costs, not employee deductions. They depend on the jurisdiction and the employer settings; review the assessment before relying on it.

Yes. A pre-publish check lists problems before you publish. Accounting-firm runs also have an internal approval workflow. When a run is published the server recalculates it, and the stored figures come from that calculation.

Yes. A PD7A remittance summary totals income tax, CPP and EI from published payroll, and the remittance schedule lists each period and its due date for regular, quarterly and accelerated remitters. You can record how and when each remittance was paid.

No. It prepares the figures and files; you review them, make payments through your own CRA payment channel and submit returns yourself.

Yes. T4 slips and the T4 Summary are generated from year-to-date payroll, with checks before generating. You can mark slips reviewed and filed, prepare amended or cancelled slips, and publish slips to the employee portal. T4 XML export is currently limited to tax year 2026. Downloading a file does not submit it to the CRA.

Yes. Records of Employment are prepared from payroll records, with an ROE Web XML export. Review the record and follow Service Canada’s submission process; downloading the file does not submit it.

No. Oh My Payroll is not certified, approved or endorsed by the Canada Revenue Agency or Service Canada. It uses the CRA’s published formulas and record layouts; review what it prepares before you file.

Payroll register, PD7A remittance summary, T4 Summary, tax liability, employer cost, deductions summary, deductions by remittee, hours and overtime, vacation liability, payroll variance, employee year-to-date and a payroll journal entry.

Yes. Employees access the employee portal with an access code and their last name. They can view and download their pay stubs as PDFs, and read the T4 slips and Records of Employment published to them.

By default the email carries a link to the portal, not the pay stub itself. A firm can choose to attach the PDF instead.

No. The portal shows each employee only their own records, and it never shows a full SIN, only the last three digits.

No. Direct deposit and bank payment initiation are not offered. Oh My Payroll calculates pay and prepares the records; you pay employees through your own bank.

Yes. A firm workspace holds many client companies, each with its own employees, pay schedules, remittance settings and payroll history. Business owners can also run payroll for their own company.

Yes. Team roles include Admin, Manager, Staff and Accountant. Server-side permission checks and assigned-client access control what team members can do.

Yes. When the optional client portal is enabled, a firm can ask a client for the hours for a pay period and the client can submit them there; it is off by default. A firm can also send a client an approval sheet; the client’s approval is recorded beside the run and does not replace the firm’s own internal approval.

Yes. A payroll journal-entry report is available from payroll records. Review the report and use it in your accounting workflow.

Not yet. Oh My Payroll is preparing for launch. Join the waitlist for updates about access. No account or payment required.

The button takes you to the Oh My HQ waitlist for Oh My Payroll. No account or payment required.

No. Please do not send Social Insurance Numbers, pay registers or employee records by email or through the waitlist. The public waitlist is for interest in the product, not payroll processing.

Yes. Opening balances let you enter each employee’s year-to-date figures from a previous provider, so the annual CPP and EI maximums and the year-end T4 boxes account for the months already paid elsewhere.

Prices have not been published yet. They will be published before access opens. Join the waitlist to hear first.

This public website does not offer a trial. No account or payment required.

No. This is a prelaunch website. There is no public checkout or plan selection here; join the waitlist for launch updates.

No. No account or payment required. You can decide once prices are published.

SINs are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before they are stored. Routine displays are masked. Revealing a full SIN requires server-side authorization and an SMS verification step, and the reveal is recorded in the audit trail. Authorized T4 XML exports can also contain full SINs and have separate permission and recent-authentication checks.

Staff access is checked on the server against organization scope and permissions. Employee-portal access is scoped separately to the employee’s own records.

No. The employee portal returns only a masked SIN ending in the last three digits. Full SIN reveal is a separate, protected staff workflow.

Yes. Sensitive actions, such as revealing a SIN or exporting a report, are recorded in an audit log your administrators can review.
