Can I deduct accounting costs?

It depends on your situation. If you’re self-employed or earned rental income, accounting and tax prep software expenses are considered eligible business/rental deductions. Commission employees may claim accounting fees and the cost of tax prep software as employment expenses. As with other employment expenses, have your employer complete and sign a Form T2200, Declaration of Conditions of Employment.
