If I didn't find a new job at my location until after I moved, can I still claim moving expenses?

If I didn't find a new job at my location until after I moved, can I still claim moving expenses?

Since there is more information needed to determine your situation, it would be a good idea if you confirmed with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) whether or not you can claim this particular expense.


If you are in Canada or the United States, you can call the CRA at 1-800-959-8281. If you are elsewhere you can call 613-940-8495. This page has more ways to contact the CRA: Contact the Canada Revenue Agency

Yes, you can claim moving expenses if your new home is at least 40 kilometers closer to your new place of work than the prior location.
