What is my industry code?
Your industry code helps the CRA classify what's the source of your self-employment income. Entering the proper industry code into your TurboTax return is an important step in maximizing your deductions.
To find your industry code:
Select the code that most closely represents your work.
The page will then refresh with a new set of codes.
Continue selecting codes to narrow down your specific area of expertise until you reach a page containing six-digit codes.
Choose the code that most closely represents your work.
Note: If you’re self-employed or run a small business, you’ll need to enter a six-digit industry code on your tax return. Using the wrong or an old code can cause the CRA’s NETFILE service to reject your return.
Some sectors, sub-sectors, industry groups, and industry categories include an item that belongs with “Other.” You can choose that code if you don't see a code that's directly relevant to your scenario.
