    Yes, changes are required. You will need to ensure that the software-generated paper invoice provides all of the information requested on the revised invoices (Form 11A or 267). Please manually add any missing information to the software-generated invoice before faxing or mailing it to WorkSafeBC or update your software.

    No. The Forms F8/11 and F8C/11C are reporting forms and are not replaced with the new invoices.
