T200S don't qualify for the employment expenses deduction this year?

Hi Guys, 

I worked from home for the entirety of 2021 and am filing my taxes in Ontario. I received a signed T2200S from my employer. As per the attached pic though, anyone know why it says I don't qualify for the employment expenses deduction? I can't seem to find any reasons why I am not eligible on CRA's website, given my company has an office but I did indeed work from home...

 

Thanks!

There are 2 checkboxes just above the red text. If both apply to you, check them off and you will be able to continue.

Ahh, only the:

"Check this if you were required to work from home at least 50% of the time for a period of 4 consecutive weeks or more in 2021."

Applies to me...So I guess that means I am not eligible. Sigh....
