Timeline for HBP Bug resolution

Hi all.

 

I have discovered a bug regarding the HBP & RRSP features, and I am wondering if its possible to provide a timeline for the fix. I am a little worried because April 30th is coming, and I can't file until this is fixed.

 

The Bug: Applies to someone who withdrew from RRSP using the HBP and is making a re-payment the same year. I am prompted to enter the amount owing from my 2023 NOA. Since the withdrawal happened in 2024, this field is blank (or 0). When its zero (or blank), the Schedule 7 tax form repayment contribution (Line 24600) gets set to zero when it should be my specified amount. The system should still know how much I repay, as this value is noted on the T4RSP form.

 

While I am aware that no repayment is required yet, I chose to repay and will encounter a penalty for RSP over-contribution if this bug isn't resolved.

 

I have phoned in this bug and told it would be fixed soon, but its a little worrying given the timeline. It's also a little frustrating when an update is available, and the changes are only described as "bug fixes"
