If you've entered an amount from any of the boxes on the slips listed here, the software may consider you to have self-employment or business income:
T4 slip: box 81, 82 or 83
T4A slip: box 20 or 48
T4A slip: box 28 and you selected Yes to the question Does the income declared in Box 028 consist of fees collected for services you provided? in TurboTax Online (needs to say NO to indicate no self-employment)
T3 slip: box 24 (foreign business income)
If you have an amount in any of these boxes, TurboTax will ask additional questions to report the income as self-employment/business income. This may have caused these forms to be included. You can delete them if not needed.
One that would be easily overlooked. When entering the amount on box 28 for the T4A, there are two (2) Box 28s. It can accidentally be entered into the wrong Box 28. This entry error triggers the warning that states there is self-employment income.
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
I checked our T4 slips and there is 0 entered in box 81, 82, and 83. Also, we don't have T4A or T3 slips. So it is still unclear why these forms are attached in the PDF return.
