Update as of  4:12pm March 7, 2019 – Communication from Employee Services below:

“Following an error when printing the T4, box 85 was missing.   Note that this box is optional so no negative impact for you. Even if you have already made your tax returns this has no impact for you.

We still thought it necessary to reprint and to send a new T4 slip with box 85 added.

Please note the new version will be available on Epay soon.”
