Did you use your residence as a foster home for children or as a group home for adults in 2016? If you did, you’ll be issued a Relevé 29 (RL-29) slip showing the income you received (and the expenses you paid) as a family-type or intermediate resource.

Your income might be subject to Québec parental insurance plan (QPIP) and Québec pension plan (QPP) premiums, if all of the following conditions apply to you:

• You take in users (up to 9) into your home that were referred to you by a public institution
• You carry out activities as yourself, and not as an organization
• The amount you’re paid as a family-type or intermediate resource is considered income
• The following amounts are more than $2,000:
  • Your net business income
  • Your insurable earnings as a person responsible for a family-type or intermediate resource
  • Your employment income subject to QPIP

You can figure out the premiums and contributions you need to pay under the QPIP and QPP by completing your LM-53-V. For information on your QPIP premium if you’re employed outside of Québec, visit the Revenu Québec website.
