HST
Effective July 1st, WorkSafeBC will pay HST for all taxable goods and services.
As a service provider to WorkSafeBC, it is your responsibility to determine if your services/goods are subject to the HST.
If you will be invoicing WorkSafeBC for HST:
- If applicable, indicate your GST/HST registration number in the invoice
- HST should be indicated on your invoice for each item. The indication can either specify the HST amount, or be a clearly identified “indicator” (a checkmark, for example) to show that HST should be applied to this item.
- If you do not indicate the HST per invoice item, your invoice will be processed as an exception. This will result in delays in processing your invoice, and generating your payment.
- Once your invoice is processed you will receive two separate payments from WorkSafeBC: one payment for the invoice items and a separate payment for the HST amount.
WorkSafeBC has revised its invoice forms to reflect the introduction of HST. The revised invoice forms will be available on www.WorkSafeBC.com by July 1, 2010.
For more information about the HST, please see the Tax Information Notice issued by the Ministry of Finance. You may also wish to contact your accountant or the Canada Revenue Agency.
