I have only used the online version and it will not let me use the code that is needed.

Getting started

Please note that the CRA update the codes and if you are a direct seller, from now on you will choose the closest code to as a retailer would for what you sell. Therefore the codes with the 454- are not longer valid.  I hope this helps.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

Can you recommend a code to be used?  I have tried different ones and they do not work as well.

When will Industry Code for direct sales or network marketing be fixed please?  This is very annoying!

 

Getting started

I tried your suggestions and picked many different codes and turbo tax still shows an error. Please fix and update your software that we pay for!!! Why are you not doing this, when so many are reporting the same issue? When I pick the code turbo tax wants then the CRA doesn’t accept, quoting the error, when I use the code CRA wants turbo tax won’t submit saying there is an error. There must be someone in the IT department that can fix this. Common already, this is madness…

Codes 454300 & 454390 will no longer work. Direct Sellers must now choose codes based on what they are selling.

 

Some examples are:

Avon: 456120 - Cosmetics, beauty supplies and perfume retailers https://bit.ly/3F0tDM2

Discovery Toys: 459120 - Hobby, toy and game retailers https://bit.ly/3ZmkMw5

Epicure: 445298 - All other specialty food retailers https://bit.ly/3miWiW0 

Isagenix: 456191 - Food (health) supplement retailers https://bit.ly/3SQSbNa

Pampered Chef: 449129 - All other home furnishing retailers https://bit.ly/3SRZcNB

Scentsy: 459999 - All other miscellaneous retailers. https://bit.ly/3YvS37b

Thirty-One Gifts: 458320 - Luggage and leather goods retailers https://bit.ly/3SUGCED

Thank you @TurboTaxSusan. Will these new industry codes work, e.g., 456191, if using TurboTax to netfile prior year returns, e.g  2020, 2021? If not, what will work for direct selling to netfile prior years' returns with TurboTax?

Getting started

I tried these different codes as suggested and still received an error code from turbo tax. Now what???  I have  2 different home based business, please suggest codes to try for Fifth Avenue Jewelry and Melaleuca.
