I work full time time at a company and am also a part time realtor. How do I report the real estate income and related expenses ? Do I need T4A from my brokerage?

I already have the T4 from my full time employment. Regarding my part time real estate gig, what else would I need from my brokerage to report the real estate commission I made in 2016. T4A and anything else? Can I report the income without the T4A?

Normally the realtor will issue a T4A, though they have until the end of February to issue it.  You may wish to contact the realtor to confirm.  The income from the T4A will be included as part of your self employed statement (T2125), it is part of your tax return.

If the brokerage does not issue the T4A, shall I just enter the total commission received? If so, is that the commission + HST or shall I report the commission without the HST? I have to pay the HST back to the government so confused on how to report the commission. Thanks.

You will already have reported your HST on the income, and on expenses, on your HST return.  So when filing the business portion of your personal tax return you will include income and expenses without the HST.
