2024 Tax Slips Checklist
To make the collection of tax information as efficient as possible, we are sharing our Tax Slips Checklist.
Keeping track of all your tax slips can be challenging, the checklist simplifies it by helping you organize the tax slips you may be receiving, depending on the type of accounts and investments you hold.
On the second page of the checklist, you will notice the T5008/RL18, Statement of Securities Transactions form. This will be included in your tax package if you had any disposition transactions during the 2024 tax year, and reports details of security positions that were sold, redeemed or matured during the time period.
The T5008/RL18 may be of assistance when calculating Capital Gains/Losses for tax purposes. For your convenience, the T5008/RL18 includes the cost or book value for the security in Box 20. Click here for more details about this enhanced reporting.
Additionally, please bring your attention to the Foreign Property Report in the T5 packages for the 2024 tax year. This report will aid those who are required to file a T1135 Foreign Income Verification Statement. Every client who held a non-Canadian security in a non-registered account in 2024 will receive a foreign property report in their initial T5 package in February.
