Workarounds Described

• Considering hiring a tax accountant to handle the filing
• Manually calculating total realized gains/losses and adjusting for superficial loss rules

Implied Software Gaps

• Bulk import and autofill for T5008 slips in tax software
• Automated validation of brokerage data against CRA tax rules
• Integrated capital gain/loss reporting with discrepancy detection
