Important Comments
Terminations Within the Tax Year
Before the tax year end, you should ensure all employees have been correctly terminated, as an employee cannot be terminated in a previous tax year. An employee can still be terminated one month after leaving. If more than two months have passed, please contact the Support Centre for assistance.
Tip
When searching for a terminated employee, remember to select the Incl. Terminated Box on the Employee Search Screen.
