T4 Summary
On this page
If you are filing your return electronically, do not send us a paper copy of the slips or summary but keep a copy for your records. For more information, go to Filing Information Returns Electronically (T4/T5 and other types of returns).
If you are filing on paper, use the T4 Summary, Summary of Remuneration Paid, to report the totals of the amounts reported on the related T4 slips.
Send the original summary and the related slips to:
Jonquière TC
T4 Program
P.O. Box 1300 LCD Jonquière
Jonquière QC G7S 0L5
Filling out the T4 Summary
Report amounts in Canadian dollars and cents, even if the amounts were paid in another currency. To get the average exchange rates, go to Exchange rates
Fill out a separate T4 Summary for each of your payroll program accounts. The totals you report on your T4 Summary have to agree with the totals you report on your T4 slips. Errors or omissions can cause unnecessary processing delays.
If you have not reported any amounts on the T4 slip or Summary, there is no need to send us a form.
Detailed T4 summary instructions

It is the number that you use to send us your employees’ deductions. Enter your operating or trade name as well as your address below the payroll program account number.
You cannot change your address using the T4 summary. To do this contact your tax centre.
