What do I put in the "GST/HST Collected" Section?

[Xomokaox]

I've been trying to figure out what to put in the gst/hst section, and when I check here for answers it's not giving me permission to view.. So I'll ask.

I filed my GST/HST on the government site, what information to I put in the GST/HST Collected section of my filing on turbotax?

Sorry if my wording is confusing, this is my first year filing as a business with a GST/HST number.

You would enter the total GST/HST collected or collectible from your GST/HST return, plus the addition info that's asked for if you used quick method.

Would this be the same amount I filed on my CRA business filing?

[TurboTaxSusan]

Yes, what you put on your GST/HST return.

In the GST/HST Collected section, is this the total amount collected? Or the amount after I subtract the GST from my expenses? Where do I mark down the GST from my expenses?

[TurboTaxAniqua]

@aaryn If you’re not GST/HST registered, then you would include GST/HST on all amounts you enter on your personal self-employment form. In the GST, HST and PST box, you would put any sales tax that you included in your income in the Total Revenue box at the top of the page. 

Thanks for choosing TurboTax

Hi Aniqua,

I am registered for GST. I have a GST number. Do I enter the total GST I collected? Or do I enter the GST I collected minus the GST I was charged when I bough items for my business (expenses)? Thank you

Since you are filing your GST separately, you will not include any GST on your tax return.

[TurboTaxAniqua]

@aaryn You will add that information when filing GST/HST return not on your personal tax return.

There's a section on TurboTax asking us to state the amount for GST/HST collected from when you filed your GST/HST return.
