The following instructions are taken from the form.
Instructions and Information
Part A – Identification
Enter the trust's name, which must be the same as the one we have on file.
Enter the account number assigned to the trust, which is an eight-digit number that starts with the letter T.
Part B – Direct deposit information
Follow these steps to have all refunds deposited to the bank account identified in Part B.
Notes
The bank account you identify must be in the name of the trust identified in Part A and hold Canadian funds at a financial institution in Canada.
If we cannot deposit funds into the account shown in Part B, we will mail a cheque to the trust at the address we have on file.
Step 1:
Tick the appropriate box to either start direct deposit or change the banking information.
Step 2:
Tell us where you want the refunds deposited. Enter the branch number in area 350, the institution number in area 351, and the complete bank account number in area 352. You can find these numbers on the bank statement, passbook, personal deposit slip or cheque, or you can get them from the financial institution.
Attach a blank cheque with the trust's banking information encoded on it and write "VOID" across the front.
Part C – Certification
The legal representative (trustee, executor, liquidator, administrator, custodian, and other) of the trust has to complete this part in full, or we cannot process the request. The CRA will not process this request unless it is signed and dated by the legal representative, and received within six months of the date it is signed. After the CRA receives your request, it can take approximately three months to make the first direct deposit payment.
Once completed
Send one completed Form T3-DD, Direct Deposit Request for T3, along with a "VOID" cheque, to:
Sudbury Tax Centre
Post Office Box 20000, Station A
Sudbury ON P3A 5C1
Changing the banking information
After the request has been approved and direct deposit starts, it will stay in effect until changed by a legal representative. We will need to receive a new Form T3-DD, Direct Deposit Request for T3, to change any of the following:
- the financial institution number
- the branch number of the financial institution
- the bank account number
If your financial institution tells us of a change in the branch, institution or account number, we may redirect payments according to the new information.
