Cancelling your T5008 slips
A cancelled slip is considered to be the same as an amended slip. For more information, see Amending returns.
Cancelling slips over the Internet
To cancel a slip over the Internet, do not change any information that was contained on the original slip. Use summary report type code "A" and slip report type code "C".
For more information about amending or cancelling information returns using the Internet, see Filing Information Returns Electronically.
Cancelling slips on paper
If you chose to file your cancellation on paper, clearly identify the new slips as cancelled by writing “CANCELLED” at the top of each slip. Make sure you fill in all the necessary boxes, including the information that was correct on the original slip. Send two copies of the slips to the recipient.
Send one copy of the cancelled slips with a letter explaining the reason for the cancellation to your tax centre. Do not file an amended or cancelled T5008 summary.
Note
If you notice errors on the slips before you file them with us, you can correct them by preparing new slips and removing any incorrect copies from the information return. If you do not prepare a new slip, initial any changes you make on the slip. Ensure you also correct the T5008 summary.
After filing your information return, you may notice an error on the T5008 slips. If so, you will have to prepare amended slips to correct the information.
