I am a self-employed professional. Should I put my Professional Dues for my regulatory body on Line 21200, or Line 8760 (T2125)?

Professional Dues Should be on Line 8760 cause you are a self-employed.

For your operating expenses, you can deduct any annual licence fees and business taxes you incur to run your business.

You can also deduct annual dues or fees to keep your membership in a trade or commercial association. However, you cannot deduct club membership dues (including initiation fees), if the main purpose of the club is to provide dining, recreational, or sporting activities.
