This is the email that was sent from VCH so after that I let Tim know I was going to change all the VCH currently and going forward to be non taxable by unchecking the box in clear care. I just want to make sure that you are good with this and that we can revise these invoices and not send them if we are not supposed to be charging tax. I apologize as I should have included you once I received the email from VCH. Let me know Sharon Sharon, Speirs General Manager Vancouver, BC Office: 778.279.3634 sspeirs@thekey.com TheKey.ca [image: TheKey] ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Sharon Speirs Date: Fri, Nov 8, 2024 at 12:27=E2=80=AFPM Subject: Fwd: Home support services in the public sector are GST exempt To: Michelle Hudgins Cc: Timothy Thomas , Lito Delapena Hi all This is the email I was talking about and after that I went and changed all the Well Sky settings so invoices do not have tax. Should we be sending them revised invoices for July just for the tax when they never should have been paying it in the first place? It does not take care of all of the invoices but it does for the ones attached. Let me know what is the best course of action Sharon Sharon, Speirs General Manager Vancouver, BC Office: 778.279.3634 sspeirs@thekey.com TheKey.ca [image: TheKey] ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Sharon Speirs Date: Mon, Oct 7, 2024 at 10:48=E2=80=AFAM Subject: Re: Home support services in the public sector are GST exempt To: Testino, Costanza [VCH] Good morning! Oh my gosh, I don't think we have been doing that since we started, I am very sorry. It will take me this week to get that rectified but going forward for the next billing period we will ensure no G.S.T is on any of the invoices.
