The following options are applicable for the keyword Interest.

  • Interest amounts paid by Canadian Banks from accounts, Investment Certificates, Term Deposits etc.. In fact, most interest from Canadian sources which do not fit into the other specific categories should be entered using this option.
  • Bond interest
  • Interest from Canada or Quebec Savings Bonds (if not using the CSB/QSB Accrual schedules) or bonds of Canadian Corporations.
  • CSB bonus
