@micky5 You can look at the Canada/UK tax treaty here: https://www.canada.ca/en/department-finance/programs/tax-policy/tax-treaties/country/united-kingdom-convention-consolidated-1978-1980-1985.html   Or you can contact the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and double check with them.    If you are in Canada or the United States, you can call the CRA at 1-800-959-8281. If you are elsewhere, you can call 613-940-8495. This page has more ways to contact the CRA: Contact the Canada Revenue Agency    

@krahn-katelyn You would have to enter your grant amount in the Box 105 that fits your situation. As per the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), student grants/bursaries whether full-time or part-time are non-taxable. Other grants might be taxable or even considered self-employment income.  

If you haven't paid for your TurboTax Online return yet, you can just delete it.    To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the bottom left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.   You can buy TurboTax Desktop here: https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tax/software/desktop    

Thanks for your answer but it doesn't really answer my question which asked whether the 2 entries for box 135 (one labelled BMU and the other labelled USA) were in USA or Canadian currency.  Presumably the other entries on the form are in Canadian currency so I would be surprised if the 2 entries for box 135 were in USA currency.  If everything is in Canadian currency, why not just aggregate the 2 amounts which is what my wife's tax accountant suggested.  I don't think the CRA would care where the income came from but it would want to ensure that all entries on the T! were either in Canadian currency to begin with or converted to Canadian currency at some point.  I aggregated the 2 amounts based on the advice of the tax accountant and the CRA haven't complained so far. 

You would need to create a new return if you just want to prepare your own return separate from your partner/spouse's.   To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the bottom left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.  

You need to start a new return before you can delete your current return.   To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the bottom left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.  

Unfortunately, once you have upgraded or added features to your TurboTax return, there is no way to downgrade or remove the extra features. You would need to create a new return to go back to the original product.    To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the bottom left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.  

@mortimer If you are registered for GST/HST, then you don't include sales tax in your income or your expenses. You only enter it when it asks "Enter the total GST/HST collected or collectible from your GST/HST return.". That amount will automatically subtracted from your gross income.    If you need more help with this issue, please contact our phone support team.   We're available Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM ET for English and French support.      

Yes.  Please hurry.  The delay is causing much stress.   Is it possible to refund to product so I can just start again?   CRA result code 84 #363047. The amount on line 63047 is negative but this line can only contain a positive amount. Please revise your entry in this line to show a positive amount and retransmit your return.  Your tax return has not been accepted by the Canada Revenue Agency.   Etc.
