T5008 Statement of Securities Transactions

[loudy_ca]

 I have account at my bank and I opened investment account with them (Mutual Fund), they told me only when I withdraw the investment I will pay taxes if I have gain. 

Now, when I'm trying to file my taxes, I reviewed my CRA account, and I found a bunch of: T5008 slips there, and I was reading that I need to enter that, and determine if its investment or gain. the problem is I never cached the amount, the bank is trading for me, and they advised that I should not cash it now because the market is down.

I see there are some gain in the last year, and if I added that mean I need to pay now taxes for something that I never cashed. how this one works? any advise?

If you’ve dealt with any of these objects in the last fiscal year you can expect a T5008 slip from your broker. What is this slip and how do you report it on your taxes? We’ll answer your questions below.
