Overview
Important! If you file more than 50 T5018 slips for a calendar year, you must use CRA's Internet File Transfer application to file original or amended T5018 returns.
Use the A/P T5018 (CPRS) Electronic Filing screen to create your T5018 information return in the required XML format. You can then submit the generated file to the CRA through their website or on electronic media acceptable to the CRA (DVD, CD, or diskette).
If your company operates in Canada and your primary source of business income is construction, you must report amounts paid or credited for construction services to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) by filing a T5018 information return, which consists of a T5018 Summary and related T5018 slips.
Note: The CRA does not process files that span more than one diskette or CD. Be sure to choose a media type that can accommodate the entire information return.
