  1. Hello Geo123,

    I've checked the CRA entries my T5008 slips are complete.

    In the past I've used the download as a check to ensure I've entered all required slips.  To be fair, this has been more important for T3's and T5's because in several cases I get paper copies only and in others I only find them on the CRA site.

    I've been using UFile for about 10 years.  Given UFile's response to this situation.  I'm not so sure I will be doing so next year.

  2. "Unable to retrieve T5008 (Statement of Securities Transactions) tax slip information: the amount of data is too large."

    As I only have 110 T5008 slips. The statement below is very disappointing. 

    I am professional software developer with over thirty years of experience and would say the statement below reeks of a problem with your code.  My internet connection is very fast, I have fairly current computer with 32GB of memory.   Also, it was stated above that in a post above that TurboTax was able to download the information after UFile failed on the same.

    Hello D E,

    UFile's ability to absorb downloaded data is a function of computer memory (as well as internet speed and network latency) and the other data in your file.     Issues have also arisen when a T5008 contains a corrupted or bad record eg. T5008 with a NULL value where it should not be.
    Of note, keep in mind that the broker is not obligated to divulge the actual Actual Cost Base (ACB) of your transactions to the CRA; therefore, although you may be able to import the data without data entry into UFile it does not necessarily mean that the data is accurate and complete.
