This isn't for working from home or employment expenses.  It is a letter from my insurance company  Acknowledgment with respect to my disability Benefit Plan. I have overpaid them when I received CPP payments.  They said to put on Line 22900. 

Need to claim other employment expenses on Line 229 (repayment of salary/wages). how do I do this?

 To do this in TurboTax Online, click on Find (magnifying glass) in the top right-hand corner. Type "emp" in the box, then select "Employment Expenses" from the list, and click “Go”.

On the "Employment Expenses" page, click the “Yes” button. Select “T2200”, then click “Continue”.

On the "Employment Expense Profile" page, select “Other Employment Expenses”. Answer “No” to the question “Are you eligible to claim the GST/HST rebate?

On the "Employment Expense Profile" page, enter your salary/wage repayment in the box labeled “Other expenses” (the 9th box on the page). Click “Continue” to save your changes.

This will enter your salary/wage repayment on Line 22900 - Other employment expenses.

Hello, 

 

@TurboTaxSusan @TurboTaxGinette Can you confirm how to add this when I did not receive a T2200 from my employer? As per your comment, I need to make a deduction on line 22900 as there is an over-payment of salary and the option within TurboTax allows for "Flat Rate" or "Detailed".  It appears the "Detailed" method requires a T2200 signed form. 

Please advise if this is too complex of a situation for Turbo Tax to handle.

Thanks so much
