Canada's employer obligation to remit GST/HST/QST on deemed supplies made to pension entities and master pension entities discussed

Participating employers with a monthly Goods and Services Tax/Harmonized Sales Tax/Quebec Sales Tax (GST/HST/QST) filing frequency must remit the GST/HST/QST liability on the deemed supplies made to certain pension entities and master pension entities by January 31, 2021. As such, it is important that employers obtain the relevant information required to report the tax in a timely manner. The respective pension entities will be ineligible to claim rebates to the extent that such amounts are not remitted on time.

A Tax Alert prepared by Ernst & Young Canada, and attached below, provides additional details.
