If my employer added an amount in box 77 even though box 14 already includes these earnings as my employer collected from wcb , will i be taxed on the combined amount?

Use the amount in Box 77 as it will transfer as a tax deduction to offset the amount of WCB included in Box 14 so that you do not pay tax on this income. Also report T5007 if you have received this.

DETAILED SUMMARY

You can find a detailed summary of your tax return under the "Review" tab > "Bottom Line (tax summaries)"> then look for the paper and magnifying glass icon in the lower left hand corner, select "Detailed Tax Summary". You will have a line by line sample of the Federal Tax.
