Initial Response: Impact Survey\u2013Preliminary results from the Impact survey circulated to artist-run centres<\/p>\n

ARCA has received 74 responses to its survey of the COVID-19 impact on artist-run centres launched March 26, and covering the initial 30 days of self-distancing measures. Researcher Mariane Bourcheix-Laporte is in the process of analyzing results that will be shared in the next issue of our newsletter. Thank you to artist-run centres who took the time to respond!<\/p>\n

If your staff is working from home, you are eligible for the Temporary wage subsidy for employers: You do not need to apply for this subsidy!\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is a three-month subsidy that will allow eligible employers to reduce the amount of payroll deductions required to be remitted to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).<\/p>\n

If your publicly funded organization has the capacity to keep salaried staff working from home during the distancing and self-isolation period due to COVID-19, you are likely eligible for the 10% Temporary wage subsidy for employers equal to 10% of the remuneration you pay from March 18, 2020 to June 19, 2020 (up to a max. of $1,375 for each eligible employee). For example, if your employee earned $ 3000, you can deduct $300 from your next payroll remittance of federal, provincial, or territorial income tax that you send to the CRA by the amount of the subsidy, in this case, by $300.<\/p>\n

To receive it, you will continue deducting income tax, Canada Pension Plan (CPP) contributions, and Employment Insurance (EI) premiums from salary, wages, bonuses, or other remuneration paid to your employees, as you currently do. The subsidy is calculated when you remit your income tax deductions to the CRA.<\/p>\n

Important<\/strong>\u2014You cannot reduce your remittance of CPP contributions or EI premiums. And, if you are not sure about figuring this out, the CRA will automatically apply the subsidy to your account when you produce your T4 summaries for 2020 next year.<\/p>\n

Anyway, it\u2019s really well detailed\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
