How do I delete employment earnings which I entered in error instead of self employment income?

I have the same problem!

 

I'm 100% self employed, never entered any amount under 'employment,' but it appears that I have an income there.

I'm guessing the problem started when

I input my T4A box 20. The box is checked under 'employment' T4A. If I uncheck it, the screen won't let me pass. There will be a red error message: either you delete your T4A entry, or you must check this box.

 

But under 'self-employment' there is ALSO a T4A box, which also I checked.

 

Never encountered this problem in my past 12 years using Turbotax.

And by the way, that mysterious 'employment' income is not a number that I recognize. It is not a double entry of the T4A or any other familiar entries in my entire tax return. It's just a random number. Can't delete it, not even find where it was generated. Please help!

If you are self-employed, you should enter the T4A as any other slip and then complete the business section to claim any expenses.


If you need to delete the T4A and re-enter it, you will need to also delete the business that was formed when you entered the T4A.

The problem is, i am not 'employed' . There is an amount automatically appear under 'employment'. I did not enter this. and cannot delete it.

If the mystery amount is showing up on Line 10400 (previously Line 104) as "Other Employment Income", the following link from CRA gives a list of any amounts that might show up here. 

 

Line 10400 - Other Employment Income

 

You may want to check if you have a Box 118 - Medical Premium Benefits or Box 132 - Wage Earner Protection Program on your T4A as this happens offten. 

 

Any amounts that are Line 10100 (previously Line 101) have to come from a T4 which you have entered.

The CRA link you provided about a list of Other Employment Incomes, I do not have any of these Other Employment Income.

As said, I only have box 020 on my T4A slip. Very simple. I have this every year. That's what I entered in my Turbotax every year. Unfortunately, the software is not as straight forward this year...

Any help would be appreciated

No other boxes than box 020 - commissions.

I look back into my 2018 NOA. This amount also appeared on line 457 - Employee and partner GST/HST rebate.

Why do I have this rebate, as a sole-proprietor self-employment?

This was done incorrectly back then in 2018. I don't have employee or partner. I never need to file GST370.

How can I delete this on Turbotax?
