Where can I input my foreign investment (stocks) profit and loss?

As your capital profit and loss involved foreign income, it should be entered into your tax return using the Foreign Slip. When you enter your amount as “Foreign capital gains/losses”, it will automatically be added to Schedule 3.

 

When you enter your amount of loss, you need to make sure that you convert it into Canadian dollars. You can get the exchange rate from this Bank of Canada webpage: Exchange Rates
