Monthly Statements and Tax Documents

Every account linked to your TD Business Central profile generates monthly statements automatically. Tax documents are published annually during filing season.

Monthly Account Statements

Statements generate on your account's cycle date — typically the last business day of each month, though custom cycle dates are available for businesses with non-standard fiscal periods. Electronic statements appear in TD Business Central within 24 hours of cycle close.

Each statement includes opening balance, closing balance, a complete transaction listing with reference numbers, and any fees or interest accrued during the period. Multi-account organizations see a consolidated view with individual account statements nested underneath.

Statements download as PDF files formatted for print or digital filing. The PDF includes a verification watermark and machine-readable metadata that auditing software can parse automatically. Per the Canada Evidence Act, electronic bank statements carry the same evidentiary weight as paper originals.

Tax Document Access

T4A, T5, T5008 and NR4 slips are published by February 28 each year. TD Business Central sends a notification when your tax documents are ready. Download them from the Tax Documents folder or set up automatic email delivery so they arrive in your inbox the moment they publish.

Regulatory Filings and Confirmations

TD Business Central automatically generates and stores regulatory documents when qualifying events occur. Wire transfer confirmation letters, FINTRAC large cash transaction reports, foreign exchange deal confirmations and EFT batch processing confirmations are all filed in the Regulatory Documents folder.

These documents are retained for ten years — three years longer than standard account statements. The extended retention reflects the compliance requirements of OSFI and FINTRAC for transaction-level records related to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing obligations.

Each regulatory document carries a unique file number, generation timestamp and the identity of the transaction or event that triggered its creation. This linkage makes it straightforward to connect a specific wire transfer to its FINTRAC report during a compliance examination.

Delivery Preferences

Toggle between electronic-only and dual delivery (electronic plus paper) from Settings then Statement Preferences. Electronic delivery is instant and free. Paper statements mail within three to five business days and may carry a per-statement fee depending on your commercial banking package. Most organizations opt for electronic-only — the documents are identical in content and legal standing.

Reprints, Certified Copies and Legal Validity

Digital statements are legally equivalent to paper, but some situations require a certified copy. TD Business Central handles both.

Instant Digital Download

Any statement or document within the retention window can be downloaded instantly as a PDF. No reprint request, no waiting period, no fee. The digital copy includes the same information as the original: account details, transaction listing, balances and the bank's authentication watermark.

For businesses that need multiple copies — one for the auditor, one for the legal team, one for the tax preparer — there is no limit on downloads. Each download is logged in the audit trail for compliance tracking.

Certified Reprints for Legal Proceedings

When a court filing or notarized transaction requires a bank-certified copy, submit a reprint request through the Documents section. Certified reprints include a bank officer signature, institutional stamp and attestation of authenticity.

Processing takes five business days. Delivery options include registered mail to your business address or branch pickup at any TD branch in Canada. Certified reprint fees depend on your commercial banking package — some enterprise packages include a monthly allocation of certified copies at no additional charge.

The certified reprint service covers all document types in the archive: statements, tax slips, wire confirmations and regulatory filings. For documents older than the standard retention period, contact customer service to initiate an offline retrieval — this adds three to five business days to the timeline.

Related Reporting Services

Statements and documents pair with other TD Business Central reporting tools for complete financial record management.

Transaction History

Search and filter individual transactions across seven years. While statements provide period-level summaries, transaction history lets you drill into specific records for reconciliation and dispute research.

Cheque Image Statements

View front and back images of cleared cheques. Cheque image statements complement account statements by providing visual proof of cheque details that appear as line items in your monthly statement.

Data Export

Export raw transaction data in CSV, BAI2 or other formats for accounting software import. Data export gives you the machine-readable data behind what statements present in formatted, human-readable PDF form.
