Getting Ready for Tax Season

2017 Personal Income Tax Checklist

The 2017 tax season is here and to help us ensure your personal income tax returns are prepared correctly and promptly, it is important that you provide us with all the required information. To help you gather your tax information, we provide the following list of reminders. Please review the list carefully.

Realized gain or loss summary

Please ask your broker for a realized gain or loss summary.

Foreign Income Reporting Requirements

Many Canadian Registered Securities Dealers or Canadian Trust Companies now provide a detailed summary of your foreign reporting information.  In case your broker does not provide you with any breakdown of the foreign property   held in the account, please provide us with broker’s statements for December 2016 as well as January 2017 to December 2017 in order for us to complete and file Form T1135. 

Prescription drug summary

In order to ease the compilation of your medical expenses, please ask your pharmacist for a summary of all prescription medication sold to you, your spouse, and your children in 2017.
