Got off the phone with TurboTax, they told me to use this code: 

 

This industry comprises establishments, not classified to any other industry, primarily engaged in retailing health and personal care items, such as vitamins, nutrition supplements, hearing aids, and medical equipment and supplies.

The codes starting with 454 are no longer valid. Please choose the closest retail industry code for you.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

If Industry codes beginning with 454 no longer work, why doesn't the software message with this response? I have been using Intuit tax software for years and this is just not like Intuit! Update the software so that customers don't have to go through all of this!

@FrankieT We will let the product development team know that a change needs to be made. Thank you for your input.

Yes I have always used 45390 for the small passive commission income I still receive from my late husbands business LegalShield Canada selling legal services peer to peer. Now end of taxes, you've taken my money and the industry code DOES not work? Help? What do I use now I don't want to mail in. You need to fix this or advise without paying extra. Thanks.

For the 2022 tax year please use the new updated industry codes here: North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Canada 2022 Version 1.0
