The problem with the S3(SUPP) form is still there after the latest TT update. The shares sold column is still 100 times higher than it should be. Yes, the proceeds, cost basis and cap gain figures are correct but after dealing with the CRA’s idiosyncrasies for over 40 years I know that any noticeable change in pattern year over year is what raises the flag with them to dig deeper. If they cross check current prices with say BCE as an example it will look as if the share price was only 36 cents instead of 36 dollars. This could cause them to request more detail about the transactions. While the actual capital gains are correct this reporting issue on the S3(SUPP) form should be corrected soon so that people can file knowing they won’t be flagged for a reassessment.
