When reporting your Canada Pension Plan (CPP) benefits on your T4A(P) slip, you may need to enter $0 in certain boxes even if they're blank on your physical slip. Here's what you need to know:

Why enter $0:

• The CRA requires an amount in box 14 (CPP/QPP benefits) and box 16 (CPP/QPP disability benefits) of your T4A(P), even if the amount is zero
• This ensures your return is processed correctly and avoids potential errors or delays

How to report in Wealthsimple Tax:

1. Add the Canada Pension Plan/Québec Pension Plan Benefits section to your profile
2. Enter the information as it appears on your physical slip
3. If box 14 or 16 is blank on your slip, enter 0 in the corresponding box in Wealthsimple Tax

Important notes:

• Always enter information exactly as it appears on your slip, except for blank boxes 14 and 16
• If you received CPP benefits, at least one of these boxes should have an amount
• Entering 0 when a box is blank helps prevent processing errors with the CRA

Remember:

• Keep your T4A(P) slip and all tax documents for your records
• If you're unsure about the amounts on your slip, compare them with your CRA My Account information
