Dividends

Hi,

I received my income as dividends (T5) from my own business (incorporated). Should I fill my personal tax return as self employee?

Hi there - TurboTax has made a short video to help people figure out if they're self-employed. Take a look and see if it helps. If you're still not sure, please come back and ask.

you dont need to file as self employed. you should prepare regular return reporting your dividends just as it is issued on the T5 SLIP
