How do I enter a T4A slip (and matching Relevé 1 or Relevé 2)?

by TurboTax Updated 1 week ago

The steps for entering information from your T4A or Relevé 1/Relevé 2 differ depending on which version of TurboTax you are using. To help, we've broken these options down into separate sets of instructions. Select the section that best describes your slip situation, then follow the instructions provided.

Note: Some of the fields on your slip may not be in TurboTax. You only need to enter the slip information that TurboTax asks for.

For a complete guide to the T4A tax slip, visit the TurboTax blog.
