BC EHT - Source Code Group

If your Gross Earnings (G0) are not adequate for your BC EHT calculations, you can set up a Source Code Group to set your remuneration. This group allows you to select which earning, deduction, and benefit codes will be included in the calculation for your BC EHT remittance.

To establish what codes should or should not be included in your EHT Remittance, please contact the Government of British Columbia.

Gross Earnings (G0) are: All Earning Codes (excluding earning that are Type Other) + All Taxable Benefits.

For a list of remunerations, see Determining remuneration for employer health tax.
