How to access Electronic Pay Statements Online
The following guide has been created with the purpose of supporting UBC residents with self-registration of their VCH employee ID with their health authority network accounts. This will allow residents to access their electronic pay statements online, with any BC health authority network account.
T4
Residents are able to access their T4 slips online through either:
If residents receive paper pay statements, they can expect to receive their T4 slips in the mail. However, if they have access to their pay statements online, their T4 will also be available online. This distinction depends on the Health Authority where they work and that Health Authority should be contacted if there is any confusion. Individuals should expect to have received their T4 for the previous year in the mail by the end of February.
For general T4 and pay inquiries, contact Payroll Services at PayrollVCH@phsa.ca or call 604-297-8683 (select Option 2) / 1-866-875-5306 (select Option 2).
For technical issues accessing the Electronic Pay Statement site, please contact the Service Desk at ServiceDesk@vch.ca or phone 604-875-4334/1-88-875-4334.
T2202
The T2202 – Tuition and Enrollment Certificate is a tax form used to certify a student’s eligibility for the education and textbook amounts. Please note, that the T2202 form has replaced the T2202A and the TL11B forms). This form is used to indicate the maximum student tax deductions for tuition, education, and textbook amounts.
Residents can access their T2202 through the UBC Student Service Centre. Questions about T2202A can be directed to UBC AskMe.
T2200
T2200 is only for expenses that are required as part of residents’ employment contract that are not directly reimbursed. There are very few expenses that residents would be required to incur that are not directly reimbursed by UBC or the Health Authority.
The T2200 form can be accessed through the Canada Revenue Agency. Residents who want to file the T2200 with their tax return, should complete the form and then submit it for approval via email to VCH Payroll. If there are costs on the T2200 form that are specific to their department, residents should specify which program in their email to VCH.
