CRA allows all employees who worked from home during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 to claim up to $500 in employment expenses at a flat rate. You can claim $2 for each day that you worked at home, up to a maximum of $500.00. There's no requirement to provide supporting documents
In the box for the Total number of days, you worked from home in 2021 due to COVID-19 closures if you type 50 in your Deduction Summary for Employment Expenses you will have $100 as a result (50 days x $2 = $100).
However, if in the box you type 250 (days) in your Deduction Summary for Employment Expenses you will have $500 as a result.
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
