Creating RL-1 and RL-1 Summary reports

You can use AgExpert Analyst to produce an RL-1 (Statement of Employment and Other Income) slip for employees or an RL-1 Summary report for employers. Employers in Quebec use the RL-1 slip to report:

• salaries
• wages
• taxable benefits
• tips
• commissions
• income “situated” on a reserve or premises and received by an Indian from an office or employment
• any other remuneration received by an employee

The RL-1 slip is also used to report amounts deducted at source from the above types of remuneration.

Note: RL-1 reports can only be sent to Revenu Québec by using the electronic upload. You can print paper copies for your employees, but can’t submit paper copies to Revenu Québec.
