Features/enhancements

The following updates were released within Wagepoint on May 26, 2021. 

Features/enhancements

1. Revenu Québec (RQ) validation – Companies are now required to provide a valid Revenu Québec (RQ) number under the “Company Info” tab before they can add an employee with a province of employment in Québec. A check will be performed when an RQ number is entered to confirm that the business number is valid.  

• Companies with no RQ number entered under the “Company Info” tab who currently have existing employees with a province of employment set to Québec will still be able to process payroll for those employees. They will see an alert notifying them that they need to provide a valid RQ number. The company will not be able to add any new employees with a province of employment in Quebec until a valid RQ number is provided. More information.
