Automobile Standby Charge

The standby charge benefit recognizes that the employee is receiving a benefit by having the automobile available to them during the year for their personal use. The standby charge is calculated based on:

  • the original cost of a purchased automobile or the monthly lease cost of a leased automobile (including GST or HST and PST if applicable), and
  • the number of months the automobile is available to the employee for personal use (which normally includes driving to and from work), and
  • the number of kilometres driven for both personal and business purposes, and
  • any reimbursement by the employee for the availability of the vehicle.
