Hi All,

A little bit ago you helped with the issues I was having efiling my client T4's by Internet Transfer through my Represent a Client portal, thank you very much.

Now, I have one client that has T5018 forms for subcontractors and the system seems to be messed up again and even if I change all the business numbers in FX Profile to the RZ0001 extension, the portal won't allow the upload.  Does anyone know how to fix this issue?  It will allow the attachment, but will not complete the procedure.

Are you getting any errors?

I am getting an error message, just not in the same part of the procedure.  Before the error message showed right at the beginning and wouldn't let me attach the xml file.  Now, with the T5018, I get all the way to submit and then this is the error message.

*Before proceeding, please acknowledge the following statement(s):

Please correct the following errors: To continue, you must view the error report.

The error report says 'Filer account number is missing or invalid for this type of return'

 

I am not sure where the account number would be missing or invalid

 

I was using the Information Returns portal to upload this file, because the extension on the account number is RZ0001

THat would be inside one of  the slips I would think, you need to check that the Account number is registered with CRA
