Get help with your remittance voucher

To help you complete your remittance voucher, choose the type of payment you want to make. Be sure to accurately provide the following information to help the Canada Revenue Agency apply your payment to the intended account.

Remittance voucher - 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, the payment will be applied to his or her account instead of yours. If you use a non-personalized T1 voucher, you need to enter your SIN.

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 in the “Instalment Payment” area. The tax year is the calendar year the payment is to be applied against.
