Amendments

Suspensions and Resumptions
You may suspend your purchases at any time. Resumption of purchases can take place before any payroll run, within whichever frequency is designated by your organization. There is no penalty or fee, and the balance continues to earn interest even while bond purchases are suspended. You can keep track of suspensions and resumptions by checking your pay stubs, the annual statement, or by accessing your Plan online at www.mybonds.gc.ca.

Increases and Reductions
You may reduce your purchase amount at any time, subject to the frequency set by your organization. Increases above the purchase amount on record for the year are not permitted between campaigns. However, increases above that amount will be accepted (depending on how often your employer allows you to make changes) for catch-up purposes as long as the annual purchase amount remains approximately the same (i.e.: an employee returns to work after maternity leave and would like to catch up on her bond purchases). Otherwise, you can only increase purchase amounts at the next annual campaign. Payroll Deduction Change Forms are attached to the CSB Brochures. This form is not to be returned to the Bank of Canada, but must be sent to your payroll department. You can also download this form here.  

Clients who contribute to several plans and wish to change their payroll deduction amount should call toll-free 1 877 899-3599, Monday to Friday, 8 am to 8 pm (ET) in order to inform Customer Service of the new amount to be allocated to each plan, otherwise the new deduction amount will automatically be pro-rated across each of the plans.

Cancellations
You may cancel payroll deductions at any time. You may choose between redeeming the bonds or continuing with them to earn interest in your Plan. To cancel your deductions please contact your payroll department.
