I come from a family of financiers and your response is not good enough.
First of all, why does Turbo Tax not include two decimal points for the measurement of the workspace and the measurement of the home, as CRA does? I don't want to answer based on number of rooms, because I would like to maintain consistency with how I reported the size of my home to CRA in previous years...and that includes two decimal points for the size of my workspace.
Why is 'rent' not specifically marked? And is 'rent' supposed to be within the zero-rated/tax-exempt category? The CRA's calculator is much more user-friendly.
For form T2200, Turbo Tax language makes it seem like it is incumbent upon the employer to 'give' the employee form T2200, which is misleading. Many employees might assume, from this language (and other references within this year's Turbo Tax), that they are not eligible to claim this deduction, and then blame Turbo Tax for misleading language (potentially leading to negative publicity for Turbo Tax). The employee can request form T2200 from the employer...and in many cases, employees will need to do just that.
Oh, and thank you for the link to the CRA. Clearly, you didn't read my initial complaints closely enough. It was the discrepancy between the CRA web site and Turbo Tax, which prompted me to complain...so obviously, I had read the relevant sections of the CRA web site in great detail.
All the best to Turbo Tax in re-designing this section of the forms.
