If I didn't receive an information slip, do I still need to report the income?

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) requires you to report all taxable income, regardless of whether you received a slip for it.

If you're missing a slip or didn't receive one, contact the person who normally provides your slips and ask for a copy.

In some cases, the CRA may be able to provide the slip. Contact the CRA to find out if a copy is available to share with you.

If you can't get a copy of the slip before the filing due date:

  • The CRA will expect you to include estimated amounts for the slip on your return. Use any stubs or statements you have to estimate the income and any related deductions or credits.

  • If you're mailing your return, attach a note listing:

    • Which slips are missing

    • The payer's name and address

    • The type of income

    • A description of your efforts to get the slip

    • The calculations you used to arrive at the estimated amounts

If you file electronically, keep your documents in case CRA asks to see them.
