Your corporation is a separate taxpayer from you, so you don't need to report the corporation's income & expenses on your personal tax return. You only need to enter the income that you received from the corporation.  

Warning are there to make sure that you double check what you've entered. If it is a Warning and not an Error, then it can be ignored if you are sure the information you entered is correct.   If it's an Error, it needs to be fixed, because something is not right, and you won't be able to NETFILE until you fix the problem.   

What you enter for your expenses doesn't go based on your income, it goes by what percentage of the expense was for your self-employment. Ex: if you had a printer that you used 90% for your self-employment, then you can claim 90% percent of the cost of ink.    How you enter the amounts depends on what the expense is. For the printer ink, you would just put in 90% of the total cost. For motor vehicle costs, you would put in the total you spend for gas, maintenance, etc... and the software will pro-rate the amount based on the kilometres you used for your self-employment work.  

@robertjeanpiche The work arounds are that you can file the returns without the transfer and submit an adjustment to add the transfer later. Or redo the returns for each separately, so you can put the transfer on the right return without the software moving it to the wrong spouse.

If you are using TurboTax Online, you can't access the forms directly. You can enter your info for the NS248 in the Provincial section of the return. Later, before you file your return, you'll get the option to download a PDF preview that shows all the forms that make up your return, including any provincial forms.  

@Nlabe    You can login to TurboTax Canada Online 2023 here: https://ww1.2023.ca.turbotaxonline.intuit.com/   Unfortunately, TurboTax Online 2022 has been discontinued, so you can't open the return file itself. You can only access the PDF copy from the bottom of existing versions of TurboTax Online.   You can still get the information from your older tax returns via the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) using their My Account service, which you can login to here: My Account for Individuals  

Did you get a NETFILE confirmation code? If you don't have a confirmation code, you still need to submit your tax return using NETFILE. Not sure how? Follow these instructions for TurboTax Online or TurboTax Desktop.
