Must report all interest As many as 5,000 Canadians are receiving T5 Information' Slips this year for the first time, Department of National Revenue, Taxation officials estimate. T5 Slips are sent by banks and other institutions to people receiving ten dollars orgmore in interest or dividends during the year. One of the questions frequently raised by taxpayers receiving these slips for the first time is: "My wife and I have a joint bank account. Who reports the interest". In the case of a joint account in which all the money was deposited from the husband's earnings, or from money he gave his wife, the interettb`must reported by the husband. However, should the money in the account originate from 'both the husband and• the wife, the interest could then be divided between them in the same proportion as their contributions tothe account. Taxation officials also point out that the widespread belief that interest and dividends under $10. do not have to "be reported is incorrect. All interest and dividends are considered income and should be reported on the income tax form Active in church work, he was an elder of Wesley -Willis Uni ted Church and superintendent .of its Sunday School for five years.
