So my question to the tax guys in the thread is, if you report a value other than the amount on the T5 and include the relevant documentation outlining the ROC portion of the foreign income, are you setting yourself up for a painful CRA audit?
What box on the T5 are the ROC being included/excluded?

Yes, if you mess with a slip, there's a high likelihood CRA will do a slip matching investigation. It happens frequently for original vs amended slip differences when filing.
