My daughter moved for temporary, seasonal work. Her permanent address remains with us. To claim moving expenses one fills in addresses. That makes it look as though she has moved provinces. How do we do this?

Online T1M - How to? 

Profile Questions

Home and other property Section - Did you have moving expenses? If you're not sure, answer Yes. We'll see later if you qualify. YES

You have moving expenses this year for school or work? If you moved to or from Canada, you must read Help to determine if you qualify to deduct moving expenses YES

Did you move at least 40 kilometres to be closer to a new school or work location? YES

Deductions Tab –  drop down menu "Moving Profile" begin

Move during the year - Did you have moving expenses during the year to start a job or a business, or to study full-time at a post-secondary institution? YES

"Moving Expenses"

You will need the following to complete your moving expense deduction claim:

Details of your old and new residence

Distance in kilometres between your old and new place of work or educational institution.

Travelling expenses from old residence to new residence

Temporary living expenses near new or old residence

Costs of selling or purchasing a home

From here your moving profile begins – she enters in "YOUR" address because she moved out of there and the "NEW" temporary address.  Answer each section as per her personal situation. Although her new address may be temporary, she still resides there.  Assuming that she is there for an extended period of time.

If her permanent address is the parental home but her temporary address is in another province, does she declare residence in the province of the parental (permanent) home or in the province of the temporary residence.  On Dec 31 she was in the temporary residence.
