Can you help me determine the correct industry code?. I have used 454300 and it tells me this is incorrect. I have checked with CRA is the code is correct.

TurboTax 2022 - Mary Kay as a commission income is not accepting codes 434300 or 434390. It rejects both as a valid industry code (although in 2021 434390 was fine)

@mcgeeb Codes 454300 & 454390 will no longer work for 2022. Direct Sellers must now choose codes based on what they are selling.

 

Some examples are:

Avon: 456120 - Cosmetics, beauty supplies and perfume retailers https://bit.ly/3F0tDM2

Discovery Toys: 459120 - Hobby, toy and game retailers https://bit.ly/3ZmkMw5

Epicure: 445298 - All other specialty food retailers https://bit.ly/3miWiW0 

Isagenix: 456191 - Food (health) supplement retailers https://bit.ly/3SQSbNa

Pampered Chef: 449129 - All other home furnishing retailers https://bit.ly/3SRZcNB

Scentsy: 459999 - All other miscellaneous retailers. https://bit.ly/3YvS37b

Thirty-One Gifts: 458320 - Luggage and leather goods retailers https://bit.ly/3SUGCED

 

If you need to find a code that's not listed in the examples, please visit the NAICS website here: https://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p3VD.pl?Function=getVD&TVD=1369825

What would it be for PrePaid Legal Services/Legal Shield in Canada? I still receive a small residual income from my late husband's business. I do not claim expenses or work it but do claim it.  I was using the code 454390 and DOES not work. I called LegalShield and their accountant told me to use 541990 which is Other professional services. I used that and it works. Hope this helps someone else and/or doesn't come back to me as incorrect!!
