Deduction for CPP/QPP/PPIP (self-empl.)

[cmackenz2020]

My son works for a gas station.  He is not self-employed.  I used the wizards to post his details.. just a simple T4.  Does it make sense that there would be an amount in "Detailed Tax Summary" at end for "Deduction for CPP/QPP/PPIP (self-empl.)?  It's only $14.09, but I'm not sure why it's not $0.  I have "Standard" edition.  Bug?

I have the same issue with standard version. I tried to read the summary today, the issue is still there. What will I do for that then I can remove the deduction.

THanks

Has this been resolved with the update on March 9th? Will the system automatically update an existing tax return that has been saved? Or are you required to complete the taxes again? Please provide the necessary steps required to do so.  @TurboTaxLise

If it's the same problem as mine, the summary shows it as "Deduction for CPP/QPP/PPIP (self-empl.)", but I don't think that description is correct.  If you check in the detailed tax summary (Menu item: Review > Bottom Line (Tax Summary) then find a link for "Detailed Tax Summary" halfway down the page), it's actually getting that amount from line 22215: "Deduction for CPP/QPP enhanced contributions on employment income" and not the self-employed line (22210) right above it.

Revenue Agency link for line 22215 

As of 2019, you can claim a deduction for the enhanced contributions on CPP and QPP pensionable earnings you contributed through your employment income.

Whether you contributed to the CPP or QPP, the maximum allowable claim is $80.85.

I updated my standard turbo tax today (April 29th, 2020) am having this same issue. It is putting a deduction on this line even though my son had no self employment income.
