In Paycircle, you can turn on a setting that will trigger an Auto EPS, whenever you run the period and an EPS is required. This means the system will automatically send an EPS once you run a period in Paycircle.
In some instances, the EPS isn't required. There is a list of criteria that need to be met for Paycircle to send an Auto EPS.
There are two types of submissions related to CIS: EPS and CIS300.
CIS payments and deductions go on a CIS300 submission.
The CIS module must be enabled for the CIS300 submission to be considered.
A NIL CIS300 submission is sent when a nil payroll is run with the CIS module enabled.
No CIS return is submitted without the CIS module enabled.
CIS deductions suffered on the EPS are a Year-To-Date (YTD) figure for the entire tax year.
YTD figures go on the EPS as payroll is run or a manual EPS is submitted.
EPS submissions are not sent for future or unfinalized periods.
If payroll is run with figures but no CIS, a CIS300 is still submitted if the CIS module is enabled.
To run a nil CIS300 submission, enable the CIS module and run a nil payroll.
Nil payroll means no CIS worker appears in the current period with the module enabled.
If CIS workers exist in the current period, their pay and deductions are submitted, even if they are nil.
For multiple months of NIL CIS300 submissions, consider using the auto-run option.
