I am adding a new bank account from another bank to my account. I have entered the correct transit # for my bank which is 4 digits. The site insists in 5 digits! I have also entered the correct 3 digit institution number and it refuses that too.

Hi Baldoonartist, and welcome to the forums!
According to the Canada Payments Association, branch numbers are all 5 digits. Does yours have a 0 at the beginning? I would recommend contacting your bank to make sure you have the correct number, if in doubt.
I hope this helps!
