Where do I enter the T4A info for self-employed income? The income page of the self employed section won't let me change the T4A slip amount. It just stays at $0.00

I know where the T4A section is in Income, but when I enter the T4A there, it doesn't link it to the self employed section to be connected to the business and its expenses.

You need to enter the income on the T4A slip page. Then TurboTax will automatically create a business page for that T4A. If you have another business page filled out already, then just put the basic info on the T4A business page. The income and expenses from the two businesses will be combined into one net self-employment figure.

Do I really need to upgrade and pay $120.00 if I have a T4A?

If you receive a T4A with amounts reported in Box 20 or Box 48, it means that you have earned self-employment income. Therefore, you will be considered self-employed for tax purposes. If this is the case, you will need to upgrade to the self-employed version of TurboTax to accurately report your income and expenses.

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

My son who is a student, received a T4A for work at a summer job. When entering the T4A on his behalf, Turbo Tax prompts me to enter business information. He is a student and does not have a business. How should I proceed with entering the T4A?

You will need to enter his name as business name and home address as business address. You won't need to complete anything else on that page.

If the T4(A) has one of the following boxes 28 or 48 with an amount in it CRA automatically considers them to be self-employed.

There is only one box with info- box 48.

Will this calculate taxes owed and be included in his return or is there another form to be filled out?

If he received a T4(A) with an amount in box 48- then you will only enter that amount on that slip. It will then automatically have you go to the T2125 self-employed section.

ED 777 — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 01:19:21 GMT

Upon filling out the T2125, it is asking for information that we do not have to be able to complete the form. Example: GST number, business number. There are no expenses.

Do you have any advice for how to complete this step when there is no GST #. Etc, that people who own a business have?

I am at a loss for how to proceed and get the taxes filed, as Turbo tax gives me errors when trying to file that are related to the missing info.

If you have a small business and do not have a business number or GS/HST number then you will enter your business name and if you work from home you will enter your home address as business address.

My T4A details won't populate to my self employment income. Why is this happening?

@ezgi Please go to the Self-Employment Summary page and check if it is going onto another business. If it is, you can just fill in the basic info into the T4A slip one, if you have already entered information into the one you are looking at right now.

I have used TurboTax Deluxe for more than a decade. I have always reported Self Employed, Professional Income. I have NO expenses and have no need to complete any forms for write-offs. Why am I now being forced to upgrade to self-employed Turbotax when all I want to do is enter the income on line 10400?

@Tired of getting ripped off In 2021, TurboTax optimized its editions to ensure that our customers are getting access to the forms need to make the most out of every individual's tax need to the most out of every individual's tax situation, and to respect his accuracy guaranty of the calculation. Since certain claims/expenses were moved to the appropriate edition. TurboTax is better able to guide our customers through their filing journey and ensure that no credits or deductions are missed. If you have Self-Employed income , even though no expenses, you still have to complete T2125 which is not available in Deluxe version. If the claim/ Expense is not covered by the Deluxe version, you will be automatically prompted to upgrade to the appropriate edition.

Even if I have a small amount in box 48 of a T4A I need to upgrade?

@aj knight If you have self-employment income & are using Turbotax Online, then you will need to use the self-employed version of TurboTax.
