Where do I find the form for "Standard Automobile Allowance" for 2021 Tax filing with amounts of 50c for first 5000kms, and 53c for additional kms?

Taking the standard automobile allowance

Unlike in the US, there is no way to "claim mileage" for self-employment, rental or employment expenses. You must claim your automobile expenses based on your actual receipts and how much you used the car for work/business purposes. 

 

The Automobile allowance rates are for employers who want to give their employees an automobile allowance that is low enough that it is not considered a taxable benefit.
