Overview

You can generate custom statements on web, including balance confirmations, contribution confirmations, holdings reports, and activity statements. Here's what each one shows:

Balance confirmation statements show end-of-day balances for your accounts on a specific date. They only show accounts that are currently open.
Average balance confirmations show the average balances for your accounts over a specific time period. They also show accounts you've closed, along with the date each account was closed.
Contribution confirmation statements show contributions to your registered accounts for a specific tax year, any withdrawals you made that year, and government-approved grants, if applicable.
Holdings reports are CSV files that show your holdings as of the date you choose. This report is available for accounts that support holdings, like Wealthsimple Trade, managed portfolios, and Crypto accounts.
Realized gain/loss reports show the gains and losses you've realized over a period in a CSV file, broken down per security. This report is available for Wealthsimple Trade and managed accounts.
Custom activity statements show your transaction history, including trades, deposits, and withdrawals, in a CSV or PDF file. This statement is available for all Wealthsimple Trade, managed, chequing, and Crypto accounts. The CSV version also includes credit card accounts.

If you need to confirm when an account was closed, request an average balance confirmation. It's the only statement in the list above that shows closed accounts and their closure dates.

If you uploaded an account statement during a transfer request and your details couldn't be read automatically, you can find your statement using the options below and enter your details manually. If you need a statement type that isn't available online, contact our support team.

Note: These statements aren't available in the Wealthsimple app.

Request a balance confirmation statement

Follow these steps to request a balance confirmation statement:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Balance confirmation statement as the document type
Choose your desired Effective date
Select Next
Select your desired account(s) or choose Select all
Select Generate document to open the PDF in your browser
Download the PDF to save a copy

Note: A balance confirmation statement doesn't show accounts you've closed, even if the account was open on the effective date you choose. To see a closed account and the date it was closed, request an average balance confirmation instead.

Request an average balance confirmation

Follow these steps to request an average balance confirmation:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Average balance confirmation as the document type
Select your desired time period and end date
Select Next
Select your desired account(s) or choose Select all
Select Generate document to open the PDF in your browser
Download the PDF to save a copy

Note: An average balance confirmation shows both your open and closed accounts. For a closed account, it also shows the date the account was closed. This is the statement to request if you need proof of when an account was closed.

Request a contribution confirmation statement

Contribution confirmation statements include the following:

All accounts: Total contributions and any withdrawals you made during the tax year. If you didn't make any withdrawals, the statement shows that none were made.
RESPs: Total contributions and government-approved grants (including QESI) for each beneficiary. RESP statements don't show withdrawals at this time.

Contribution confirmation statements don't include:

Portfolio growth or investment returns
Pending contributions
Sent but not yet approved contributions
Transferred-in contributions or grants from previous institutions
Money you move between two Wealthsimple accounts of the same type

Note: When you move money between two Wealthsimple accounts of the same type, for example from one TFSA to another TFSA, we count it as a deposit rather than a contribution. It won't appear on your contribution confirmation statement, but you can find it on your other statements, like your monthly statement or a custom activity statement.

Follow these steps to request a contribution confirmation statement:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Contribution confirmation statement as the document type
Select your desired Tax year from the dropdown menu
Select Next
Select your desired account(s) or choose Select all
Select Generate document to open the PDF in your browser
Download the PDF to save a copy

If you have an RESP, your monthly statements are the most reliable way to confirm your contributions. Recent contributions might not appear on your contribution confirmation statement yet.

Request a holdings report

You can request a holdings report in a CSV file that includes financial portfolio data, like account details, security information, position quantities, and various price or value metrics. The report shows your holdings as of the date you choose.

Follow these steps to request a holdings report:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Holdings report (CSV) as the document type
Select your desired As of date
Select Next
Select your desired account(s)
Select Download CSV

Request a realized gain/loss report

You can request a CSV file that shows the gains and losses you've realized over a period, broken down per security with totals, across equities, options, and futures. It shows amounts in both Canadian and US dollars, and it's available for Wealthsimple Trade and managed accounts. It's also known as a realized profit/loss (P&L) report.

Follow these steps to request a realized gain/loss report:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Realized gain/loss report as the document type

Note: This report is for your own reference and isn't an official tax document. For tax questions, consider speaking with a tax professional. Wealthsimple will provide any official tax documents you need.

Request a custom activity statement

You can request a custom activity statement in a CSV or PDF file that includes transactions such as buys, sells, deposits, withdrawals, options expiry, options exercise, and options assignment. You can also choose the time period and the account(s) you'd like to generate the custom activity statement for.

The PDF version also shows your personal details, like your name and address. For each transaction, it shows the transaction date, the settlement date, the transaction type, a description of the transaction, whether it's a debit or a credit, the amount, and the currency.

Follow these steps to request a custom activity statement:

Log in to your Wealthsimple profile
Select the Profile menu in the bottom left corner
Select Documents from the menu
Select Generate document
Select Custom activity statement as the document type
Select your desired time period
Select Next
Select your desired account(s)
Select Download CSV/PDF

Note: The custom activity statement doesn't include credit card accounts in the PDF version at this time. To include your credit card accounts, download the CSV version. The statement also doesn't show a running cash balance. To see your balance over time, check your monthly statement instead.
