Line 24900 – Security options deductions
If you disposed of securities where you had previously deferred the taxable benefit (see line 10100), complete Form T1212, Statement of Deferred Security Options Benefits.
You may be able to claim a deduction for donating securities that you acquired through your employer's security options plan. For more information, see Gifts of securities acquired under a security option plan.
For 2024, T4 slips may be issued with amounts reported at boxes 91 and 92 for security options deductions after June 24, 2024, at a rate of 33.3333%. If that is the case, follow the instructions and report the amounts from the T4 slip at line 24900 of your return. Also claim the additional security options deduction at line 24901 to increase your total security options deduction to 50% of the security options benefits received in the year (see Federal Worksheet for calculation).
