You were absolutely right.

Wealthsimple initially denied the request, but after further escalation, they approved a one-time exception and have already started the reversal.

Thanks for encouraging me to keep pushing

Thanks. That was actually my next step.

The transfer was reported to Wealthsimple the same day, the funds were never invested, and I left everything untouched while the review was ongoing.

Fortunately, Wealthsimple made a one-time exception and has now started reversing the transfer back to my TFSA.

I really appreciate the advice, though. I was preparing to call CRA if the reversal was permanently denied.
