How do I claim medical travel expenses?

user17758582678 — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 22:03:13 GMT

I had to do a lot of in-province travel to various hospitals. How and where can I enter this information?

Hi, I would like to change my mailing address on my return and understand that I will need a tax preparer to help me with this. Which product should I choose?

Where can I purchase the TurboTax product for Incorporated Business Income Tax T2 Filing for year end 2026?

Re: Can I claim my tools? I'm an apprentice heavy duty mechanic

TurboTax_Susan — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 23:20:38 GMT

You might be able to. This Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) page contains a section on who is eligible and what tools are eligible: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-return/completing-a-tax-return/deductions-credits-expenses/line-22900-other-employment-expenses.html

To claim the cost of your tools in TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online), you can use the search bar on the 2025 Tax Return home page to search for "Employment Expenses".

Re: Can I change my partner's name that I misspelled?

TurboTax_Susan — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 21:39:09 GMT

Yes you can, if you haven't filed yet. If you are using TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online), switch to your partner's return. On the 2025 Tax Home page, click on Personal Info, then edit. Then you can click Edit to the right of the line where their name is.

Re: Does landscaping expenses qualify for any credit/deduction for someone who is over 70 years old?

TurboTaxAniqua — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:22:35 GMT

Landscaping expenses generally do not qualify for federal tax credits or deductions for seniors, as they are considered routine maintenance. However, if you are 70 or older and live in Quebec, you may be eligible for a provincial tax credit for home-support services that includes lawn mowing and landscaping.

Expenses you can claim

Hope this helps!

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

If you are a Canadian citizen, then yes, Full Service will be able to assist you in filing your return to the CRA with both Canadian and US income. However, they will not be able to file a US return.

TurboTax_Susan — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 20:06:40 GMT

You can only claim amounts that your employer hasn't reimbursed you for. So, if they paid you back $50, then you can only claim $20.

Re: Connecting to Etsy

TurboTaxAniqua — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 19:29:11 GMT

To fix this, follow these steps:

If you started your return by clicking a link on Etsy, it may have "glitched" the interview flow.

Log out of both Etsy and TurboTax.

Log back into TurboTax Online directly.

Navigate to Income > Self-Employment > Tax Profile.

Look for a button or prompt that says "Import" or "Connect to a partner." In the 2025 version, Etsy and Uber integrations are often found under the "Income" summaries rather than a standalone tab.

If this doesn't work, we recommend contacting our product support team by phone.

https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/turbotax-support/en-ca/help-article/tax-return/contact-us/L1h8P3E0x_CA_en_CA?uid=m4j5o7no

They have access to tools we don't have here in the community, like screenshare, and see the issues to escalate into an investigation if needed.

Re: how to co file while sharing t5's with wife?

Kupat — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 17:42:15 GMT

First of all, start a new return.

If you wish to file jointly with your wife, select My Spouse/Partner and Me where it asks you for "Who are you preparing this return for?" and continue.

Once you begin your return this way, you will have to answer basic questions related to yourself and your spouse: name, DOB, etc.

After you have started your joint return with your spouse under the Investment section, you can enter or upload your T5.

In TurboTax, if a T5 is in both names, only one person will enter it, and on the bottom of the T5, it asks what percentage is for the spouse, and they would enter 50%.

If you both contributed equal amounts to the investment and you share money, you can each claim 50% of the amount shown on the T5 tax slip. Otherwise, you can claim the appropriate portion depending on how much you contributed to the investment account:

Amount to report = personal amount contributed/total amount contributed

For example:

Amanda and Phillip opened an investment account together that pays interest. Amanda contributed $1,000, and Phillip contributed $3,000.

They received a T5 slip with both names on it and an amount of $100 in Box 13.

Each will have to report a portion of this income on their tax returns:

Amanda will report: $100 x $1,000/$4,000 = $25
Phillip will report : $100 x $3,000/$4,000 = $75
