My total medical expenses are greater than my threshold of 3%. Why does turbotax say they do not meet the threshold?

Hello @Bgmuirhead 

 

Line 33099 - You can claim the total of the eligible expenses minus the lesser of the following amounts:

  • $2,635
  • 3% of your net income (line 23600 of your tax return) 

 

Also, it would be a good idea to review your medical receipts. You can look at your T1 General Line 33099 for a little more details about your Medical Expenses.

 

Thank you,
