Yes it was entered. It was entered on the T4A(P) line for Canada Pension Disability. This person was approved for the Canada Pension Disability in Aug 2023. It was determined that she was eligible for the Disability Tax Credit back to 2021. This person had been receiving a monthly disability payment from Canada Life since 2021. Since this person now qualified for CPP disability, in January 2024, instead of Service Canada providing a back pay amount to this person who would then have to pay back Canada Life, Service Canada paid back the money to Canada Life in a lump sum on behalf of this person. This amount is captured on a T4A(P) slip which unfortunately makes it seem like the person made 3 times more money than they actually do. This person received a letter from Service Canada detailing the break down of the lump sum money over 3 years: 2021,2022 and 2023. Since the lump sum was reported in Jan 2024, the person has to file it as part of their 2024 taxes but since they do not work, there is no other income to report and this causes as bug to pop up in the Turbo tax and the income reported on lines 10100, 10400, 12799, 12800 and 13000 add to $0 for this person which is less than the amount on line 68519 on form T1198. However if the sum of the lines on T1 General also included T4A(P), then this error could have been averted and I could have electronically submitted the tax file. The income reported for the person is correct but the calculation for the lines listed above do not include the lines that this person had income reported. Can this be fixed ?
