Important information regarding your tax slips

This page contains information about tax slips and securities tax reporting that may be helpful to you and your tax professional. Edward Jones expects to mail all tax slips to clients no later than March 31. Tax reporting for trust units and partnerships is more complex, and as a result, issuers have more time to provide us with final tax reporting information. Please consider this when scheduling your appointment with your tax advisor.

Explanation of tax slips and forms you may receive from Edward Jones

All investors who had dividend or interest entries posted to their accounts throughout the tax year will receive an Investment Income Summary.

Income from trust units or Canadian Treasury bills/U.S. Treasury bills is not reported on this document. Trust unit income is reported on the T3 Summary of Income, and Treasury bill income is reported on a Trading Summary that summarizes the T5008 information reported to the Canada Revenue Agency.

Note: Tax laws prohibit the netting of debits and credits. Investors may be able to use copies of their Investment Income Summary to claim the “Paid by You” amounts when filing their income tax returns. Borrowing charges are included in the “Paid by You” amounts.

All investors who are deemed to have received trust unit income and capital gains during the trust’s fiscal year will receive a Summary of Trust Income. Account types are consolidated on one summary (e.g., cash, margin, etc.).

A separate summary will be prepared for each currency. The entries are sorted by security and then in chronological order. Totals for each income type will appear at the end of the summary.

These totals are used to generate the entries that appear on the T3 and Relevé 16 Slips.

Note: Distributions from trust units and limited partnership units can take various forms, including taxable dividends, interest, capital gains and foreign income, or a combination thereof. The frequency and type of distributions vary by trust unit and limited partnership unit. In the majority of cases, when distributions are announced, the trust or limited partnership does not know what portion should be applied to the various types. This information on the distribution split is usually not made available until March. Some are declared only a few days before the deadline. In certain situations, distributions declared and paid in the new year must be reported as income received in the previous year.

We will mail the Summary of Trust Unit Income and the corresponding T3 and Relevé 16 Slips as well as the T5013 and Relevé 15 Slips by the corresponding deadlines. Please keep this in mind when scheduling your appointment with your tax professional.
