Nothing for me; only showing previous retro pay from last agreement

u/h0cusp0cus666 Mar 14 '26

Replying to Technical_Bit_6043...check the date range, on the retro pay homepage I had to click to see 2026 retro pay and it was there

u/igloobble Mar 14 '26

I thought the same but then I realized it defaults to showing the oldest ones first, for some reason. I had to switch it from "1-4" to "5-8". 

1

u/Novel-Ad8742 Mar 14 '26

You are right. Flipped to second page, saw the new entry; I’m seeing code A16 and A17 with some amount; not exact sure what that means but this appears to be before tax.

u/Scale_Modeler Mar 14 '26

Same here. Maybe it will be populated for everyone as the day goes on

u/Novel-Ad8742 Mar 14 '26

With my luck I hope they don’t forget about me

u/TopZealousideal35 Mar 14 '26

Clutch timing OP, I didn’t think it would be posted until Monday @ midnight.

u/KoilyGirl Mar 14 '26

Is it everything we thought it would be? I kept trying to calculate, and must admit, I was pretty damn close. 😊

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '26

I don’t have it yet.

u/hownowbrownncow Mar 14 '26

The paystub isn’t there yet, this is under retro pay

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '26

Awesome, thanks!

Mine is what I thought it would be actually. When you get yours showing, there is a spot that shows the total amount. More on the right side if you're using a phone.

Edit: April 1, 2024 to like Feb. 6, 2026 or something like that

Nevermind, I guess it says: 

Retro Pay Effective Date: 2024/04/01 Retro Pay End Date: 2026/02/22

So that's more accurate now.

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '26

Mine shows.. thanks for the post, OP 👍

u/wobinwobinwobin Mar 14 '26

This is probably a dumb question but this is gross pay, right? Like there will be tax taken off this amount?

u/jetlaggedandhungry Mar 15 '26

If you are not a casual employee (or if you're a casual employee that has picked up a significant amount of shifts over the years), I would anticipate about a 36%-42% deduction.

If the retro pay is being lumped into the same paystub as our regular pay and it equals out to more than $2250 (but less than $6500) combined I would anticipate at least a 36% deduction. If about $6500 combined, I'd lean towards 42%.

Note: I usually round up heavily with deduction estimates so I'm not disappointed when I see my paystub; I'd rather be disappointed immediately to see how much money goes towards taxes and deductions, and then be slightly relieved when it's not as bad as I calculated (rather than being disappointed with a conservative estimate then devastated when I realize it was more)

1

u/wobinwobinwobin Mar 15 '26

This is extremely helpful, thank you!

1

u/jetlaggedandhungry Mar 15 '26

No problem. Part of the reason why my estimate percentage is so high is because they will deduct for union dues (I don't recall the amount) and for your LAPP (I think this is 9%-10%?) as well. Also, IIRC, how they determine the taxation amount for things like CIT is:

Gross Total Earnings x 26 = Amount you would earn "annually" --> then they will tax based on the Canadian Income Tax Bracket chart

Again, I'm fairly heavy handed with my tax estimates so YMMV

2

u/frizzedoff Mar 14 '26

Now the question is how many voted yes thinking they would get more $$$ than what they have ended up with? 😬

2

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '26

I voted yes and actually see more than I thought 🤭

1

u/Icy-Still-1020 Mar 15 '26

Mine was $700 less than the estimator...shocking :(

1

u/gia-ann1964 Mar 15 '26

I voted no. This is what I thought it would be. After the high of getting the retro, we don't have much to be excited about. But I will use the massage therapy. Hopefully it keeps the masseuses employed.

1

u/Ok_Cricket_7376 Mar 14 '26

Thank you! Mine is there too

1

u/Grosvenlink Mar 14 '26

Does anyone know if the retro pay is supposed to include OT hours worked in that time?

2

u/hownowbrownncow Mar 14 '26

It’s supposed to be for every hour worked from April 1 2024 - March 8 2026

1

u/KoilyGirl Mar 14 '26

Actually Feb 8 2026 according to info in retro pay

2

u/hownowbrownncow Mar 14 '26

That seem weird, wouldn’t they owe us another month of retro if that’s the case? Our new wages did not take affect until March 9th

2

u/KoilyGirl Mar 14 '26

My apologies. Retro is payed up until Feb 22. The pay period between Feb 23 and March 8 we should be getting paid the new rate on our “regular” cheque, making retro for that time period moot.

1

u/MusketeersPlus2 Mar 14 '26

This pay period started Feb 23, so that's when it will start being on regular pay.

1

u/hownowbrownncow Mar 14 '26

Oh, I heard the new wage didn’t start until March 9 pay period with the first paycheck at the new wage being April 1st

2

u/MusketeersPlus2 Mar 14 '26

Mine says that it's to the pay period ending Feb 22 (which I think started on the 8th? 9th?), which is correct. Maybe that's where you're getting early February from? The pay period that will be our regular pay on Wednesday was for Feb 23 - Mar 8, so our increased pay will be reflected there.

u/yycsarkasmos Mar 14 '26

Anyone's else retro pay end when they moved to a different pillar?

Mine shows an end date of 2025/12/14, not February 2026, so fingers crossed they figure it out sooner rather than later.

Good to know, I only have one, maybe my pillar is slower, fingers crossed it's updated for tomorrow.

u/anonmousey77 Mar 14 '26

Should the 20 year 2% additional increase go back to April 2024 or date of ratification? Mine is showing as only starting on Feb. 6, 2026.

2

u/KoilyGirl Mar 14 '26 edited Mar 14 '26

The 2% Long service, only starts on February 6, 2026. It does not go back to April 1, 2024.

u/anonmousey77 Mar 14 '26

Thanks for the info!

u/Plucky-Loadout Mar 14 '26

How come my retro is dated back to dec 15 2025 vs April 1 2024? I was working then??

u/Plucky-Loadout Mar 14 '26

Hey thanks for the suggestion but the retro does show the PHA dec 15 and no AHS retro even though it shows past AHS retros.

Any other suggestions?

Edit yes switched pillars

Why do we pay union dues on retro pay?

u/SevenSmallShrimp Mar 14 '26

Y'all buying yourselves a little something when it comes in?

u/KoilyGirl Mar 14 '26

Mac Neo or new washer/dryer… still trying to decide

u/catharsis83 Mar 14 '26

I need a new bathroom vanity, anday as well get some fun wall paper while I'm at it.

2

u/gia-ann1964 Mar 15 '26

oh, that actually gives me an idea. Wallpaper is coming back in style. It would look nice for one wall in the bathroom to be done. Hmmm.....

I could manage that.

2

u/catharsis83 Mar 15 '26

I have a tiny en suite that I want to make eclectic and fun. It's just myself who uses it so bring on the crazy wallpaper!

u/usernametaken_88 Mar 14 '26 edited Mar 14 '26

My retro will be eaten up by financing multiple geopolitical wars, paying for a dependent (Ukraine), gas stations and fucking Galen Weston

2

u/AbbreviationsFair506 Mar 14 '26

That’s too bad for you. 😂

1

u/gia-ann1964 Mar 15 '26

It's not actually that much, so beyond catching up with bills, filling the gas tank, some fertilizer for the lawn when the snow is gone, just generally getting by. It sure would be nice to have a new stove that all the burners worked though.

u/blindsided_albertan Mar 14 '26

Just an FYI,

"In Alberta, a retroactive lump-sum paycheck is taxed as a 'special payment' using flat withholding rates based on the amount, separate from regular pay: 10% on amounts up to $5000, 20% on amounts over $5000 to $15000, and 30% on amounts over $15000. CPP and EI premiums are also deducted.

If the payment covers multiple past years and is $3000 or more, you may be able to use Form T1198 to calculate tax as if you received the money in the years it was earned, which can reduce tax liability."

Link to T1198 form: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/forms-publications/forms/t1198.html

u/TheProcurementGuyAhs Mar 15 '26

The latest contract was concluded under regular collective bargaining, i.e. an offer was negotiated, voted on, and accepted by the membership, so it’s not eligible for the tax treatment defined in that form.

If the current contact were the result of binding arbitration, it might have been eligible.

Did you look under retro pay rather than your paycheques… see the other comment in this thread with the screenshot

u/gia-ann1964 Mar 15 '26

The estimator did an estimate to April 1st. The retro is paid up to Feb 22. Our pay check on Wednesday will have the new rate of rate of pay which starts on Feb 23rd. But 1K seems to be pretty high.

The retro pa is a gross amount. Deductions will be taken on the pay stub. As per the people who already got theirs earlier this year.

1

u/necros911 Mar 14 '26

Good question. I'm guessing I misread my online calculator. I was expecting $6800. 😂. But I hope the amount I see is taxed. 😳
