Mailing Schedule for tax slips and associated reports

Depending on your investment holdings and account activity, you could receive a variety of tax slips that you’ll need to prepare your annual tax return. For a brief overview of the various tax slips and supporting documents you may receive from BMO, along with their expected availability dates, refer to our publication, 2025 Tax Documents Overview and Schedule.

Please make sure that you receive all required tax slips before filing your tax return with the Canada Revenue Agency. Note, the final T3 tax slips (if applicable) were mailed out the week of March 27th. If you are unsure if you have all of your documents or would like us to email them to you or your accountant, please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

See 2025 Tax Reporting Guide for BMO Nesbitt Burns for an overview of tax reporting for BMO Nesbitt Burns clients, information about filing deadlines, estimated mailing dates of tax slips, answers frequently asked questions about the annual tax season and provides other information to help simplify your tax preparation efforts.
