How To Enter Vehicle Expense Compensation

[sflan73]

Hi Everyone,

                       I’m trying to help a friend with their taxes.  Usually I can figure these things out but this one has me puzzled.  I have entered her T4 and Releve slip.   She works for Canada Post and also received a form for expenses.    

 She pays for her own fuel and gets reimbursed per km travelled. The form is called Declaration of conditions of employment.  It is checked that her contract requires her to pay their own expenses. Then in the next section, motor vehicle travel and other expenses in part 8 it shows the rate per km and then the amount given. 

I started to enter it but am not sure how to do it. It seems like it should be easy but there are so many sections I’m not sure exactly what to do m 

I’m hoping there’s a simple answer that someone can point me to. 

thanks for the help

You don't need to enter any amounts that they were reimbursed for. If they had other employment expenses that they were required to incur by their employer that weren't reimbursed, then you can enter them in the Employment Expenses section.
