Yea, that doesn't work.
The reason why I was getting flagged as having foreign income is because some box on a T3 was filled out in a way that the government says must mean that I have a business. That's all fine, but TurboTax handles it in a very unsatisfactory way. There was no indication that this is what was going on and no indication of what to do about it.
In fact, I would say that Turbo Tax was very misleading when it said that I had indicated that I had self employment income. Filling a box does not, to me, mean that I indicated that I have self employment income. The messaging within TurboTax should have been much better than it was to describe the situation.
There were just too many things that went wrong this year. I am going to be evaluating other options next year.
