Attending U in Ontario. Residence with parents in alberta for summers & on dec31. Can I claim moving expenses to Ontario? What is mailing address & residence address?

The program is not giving me an entry screen for moving expenses.  In my view, moving expenses are from home in alberta to Ontario in September to attend school, and perhaps to move back to alberta and the end of the school year.

For tax purposes you did not move.  You visited Ontario in order to go to school but your province of residence is still Alberta and your primary residence is still your parents' home.  You are ineligible to claim moving expenses.
