Amounts received due to an accident have to be reported in line 10400 – Income – maintenance insurance plans (wage-loss replacement plans) of your tax return. This line contains the income from employment that is payable under a sickness, accident, disability, or income maintenance insurance plan. Note, that if you have paid the entire cost of the plan, the amount that you received is not taxable. Please also consider that you may not have to report the full amount on your return if you and your employer have made contributions to your insurance plan. The amount that you will have to report will be the amount received minus contributions you made to the plan after 1967 if you did not use them on a previous year’s returns.
To enter amounts received from insurance due to accident you will need to file the T4A, please follow the steps presented below:
