Thank you for choosing TurboTax, 

 

As per CRA,  you can claim moving expenses you paid in the year if both of the following apply:

  • You moved to work or to run a business, or you moved to study courses as a full-time student enrolled in a post-secondary program.
  • You moved at least 40 kilometers closer to your new work or school.

If you have both of these conditions, you can claim your travel and lodging expenses.

 

Please visit our TurboTax article on Moving Tax Deductions in Canada to learn more about moving expenses.

 

If you want to ask specific questions related to moving expenses, please reach CRA from this link: Contact the Canada Revenue Agency
