For reporting Capital Gains in FX currencies, in the Capital Gains Deduction Profile,it asks to choose the type of capital gain on pull-down menu,so which one is for FX?

the closest type to choose may be is bonds, but it asks for maturity dates. not applicable in this case.

Getting started

Assuming you are using TurboTax Online, in the Capital Gains and Capital Gains Deduction profile, check the first box: "Sold stocks, bonds, real estate, other capital property, or sold qualified small business corporation shares and/or qualified farm property and you have a capital gain or loss to report"

 

After that screen you will enter a new disposition or edit the one you want to do for FX, the type of capital property is: "Bonds/Other Properties" as this is the official line item that Canada Revenue Agency asks for you to report.

For more information, check out: Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) - Foreign Currencies

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
