I saw this post and thought I would inquire about this also. 

 

If you use the "other earnings", ei & cpp are deducted from the severance payment.  According to the CRA, a severance payment is subject to federal/provincial income tax but there should be no ei or cpp deducted.  Is there another payment type I can use in QBO that will complete this task (issuing severance pay) in compliance with legislative requirements. 

 

Thank you.
