Just got today my hardcopy T5 from Omnia Direct. Noticed the amount is $10 more than what I've actually rec'd during the year.
Then I noticed on the annual statement a $10 dividend which I never received. I probably will contact them next Tuesday but post here & wondering if anybody got the same discrepency ?

Check your credit union share accounts. Many credit unions will "pay" dividends. But, the dividends are reinvested in shares and not paid out as cash.
That happened with Hubert Financial years ago. My T5 slip showed a bit more interest than expected. The extra turned out to be a dividend that was credited to a share account.

Got Omnia respond - There is a difference reported on the T5 which is the membership share that WFCU has provided/funded for you to open the WFCU account. Also, at the time that the WFCU account is closed, these membership shares are redeemed back to WFCU as the account closure fee.
Taking Norman1's comment into consideration, I suppose this is not an unusual practice among CUs. These membership related issues have not been front and center (nowhere to be found on omnia's website). I am glad it come out finally.
