I am getting an file error. It says there the province for self-employment is different from the province of residence. This is for a retired person. How do I fix?

If you've entered an amount from any of the boxes on the slips listed here, you have what the CRA says is self-employment or business income:

  • T4 slip: box 81, 82 or 83
  • T4A slip: box 20 or 48
  • T4A slip: box 28 and you selected Yes to the question Does the income declared in Box 028 consist of fees collected for services you provided? in TurboTax Online
  • T3 slip: box 24 (foreign business income)
