Auto-import of T5008 introduced a dangerous error into my return
I used the auto-import feature, and it imported T5008 slips completely ignoring the currency field (Box 13).
This means that if I had, for example, $10,000 USD of capital gains (so around $14,000 CAD), auto-import treats it as $10,000 CAD of capital gains. So, an error of about $4000!
This is really unacceptable, dangerous, and should be fixed. It is a "junior-intern-must-have-coded-this" level of bug, to completely forget about the currency. I found other threads on this forum about the Box 13 issue in T5008, but none of the other threads talk about just how dangerous the issue is, for someone who trusts Turbotax to do the right thing when importing data.
