Financial slips and summaries

Since January 1, 2010, filers must use their information returns program account.

Also since January 1, 2010, mandatory Internet filing applies to filers of information returns who submit more than 5 information slips. If you file more than 5 information slips, there are special rules you have to follow when filing information returns electronically.

Note

Budget 2021 announced that the threshold for mandatory electronic filing of income tax information returns for a calendar year would be lowered from 50 to 5 information returns.

The legislation for this measure was not finalized when the guides and forms were published.
