How to Review and Generate T5013 Tax Slips

How to Generate and Release T5013 Tax Slips on the addy Platform

Overview: addy provides the functionality to generate and release T5013 tax slips for all limited partners who have invested via the platform. Before investors can access their tax slips, the issuer must review the details to ensure accuracy and approve the release. This article explains the review process and the available options for exporting tax-related details.

 

Steps to Generate and Release T5013 Tax Slips:

  1. Review Tax Details:

    • Issuers must first verify the accuracy of the tax slip data for each entity, you can do this by navigating to the entity and selecting the "Taxes" tab.

    • Next select the year you wish to review and click "Download to Review" and a CSV export of all of the investors tax details will be provided.

    • If you would like to spot-check random T5013 slips you can use the Generate T5013 slip button at the bottom and a sample will be generated using live user data - note Box 006 will use 000000000 instead of live SIN numbers for samples.
    • Once the details have been reviewed and confirmed you will be able to toggle the release switch for the specific entity. This action will:

      • Notify the members associated with that entity.

      • Make the tax slips accessible via the members' addy profiles.

    • A list of all of the Boxes that will be handles, and their descriptions, can be found at the bottom of this article.
  2. Export Tax Details: To assist in the review process, two options are available for exporting tax-related information:

    Option 1: Non-PII CSV Export

    • Download a CSV file that includes the member ID and all relevant tax details.

    • This option excludes any personal identifiable information (PII) such as names or addresses, making it suitable for internal data review without confidentiality concerns.

    Option 2: PII CSV Export

    • Download a CSV file containing all tax details along with the investors' name, address, and partner identification number.

    • Since this file contains PII, it will be password-protected for added security.


Important Notes:

  • Accuracy Check: Ensure all tax slip details are accurate before toggling the release switch.

  • Security: Handle the PII-inclusive CSV with care and share the password securely if the file needs to be shared internally.

  • Notifications: Once the release switch is toggled, members will receive a notification that their tax slips are available for download.
