Got my 2023 re-assessment where they reclassified Uber from other income to self-employed. This has resulted in CPP charges of 2k+. Is this a turbotax issue they'd cover?

Uber income is considered self-employment income, regardless of whether you do Uber rideshare or Uber Eats delivery, as per these TurboTax FAQs:

Even if your not doing Uber, if you have employment income that's more than $3,500, you need to pay CPP contributions on that income. So, you must enter it as self-employment income if you don't have a T4 slip from an employer showing that the contributions have already been made during the year.
