Dear XXXXXXXXXX:
This is in reply to your letter of February 11, 2004, which was forwarded to us by the Sudbury Taxation Centre for reply. You ask confirmation that XXXXXXXXXX need not file T5008 returns for its tax-exempt clients.
We confirm that XXXXXXXXXX is generally required to report the sale of a security on form T5008 but is exempt from the reporting requirements where it is made on behalf of a person exempt from tax under section 149 of the Income Tax Act.
We trust that the above comments are of assistance.
