Next steps
If you have filed or are in the process of completing returns with foreign income, we recommend double-checking that a country has been selected on the T5 slip in order to ensure the foreign tax credit is calculated. If you have filed a return that is impacted by missing the country name in the T5 slip, you will need to adjust the entry on the return and go through the ReFILE process with the CRA wherever needed.
