When in your return go to the top right and click on the Find tool (🔍) then type in work from home- click on it then click on GO. You will now be in the section Employment expenses- YES Then you will check off I received form T2200 - Declaration of Conditions of Employment from my employer and/or I want to claim the Labour Mobility Deduction. Continue - then next page check off all that apply to you and continue. Then you can fill out your T2200 here. 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

Yes that's how far Ive gotten. Once I'm doing motor vehicle summary etc. I don't know where to fill in the info on my T2200 on Turbo tax. It's really not cut and dry. I work in film and I get vehicle, cell phone and computer allowances which are already claimed on my T4 but also have a T2200 form. So I have these amounts for each allowance and no where to fill it in....

[TurboTaxSusan]

If your employer provided you with an allowance for vehicle expenses, they are an employee benefit so you can't claim them as a deduction.

You can only claim expenses that you allowance didn't cover, providing that you were required to incur the expenses by your employer.

Then why does my employer fill in this T2200 for the allowance amounts? 

[TurboTaxSusan]

They have to as it’s asked on the form. It should also say how much the allowance was, so that you can determine if you paid more then it covered.

I attempted to follow your instructions. The Help function did not provide me with an option to click on GO. I entered that I had Employment Expenses and did not have an option to check off that I received a T2200 Declaration of Conditions of Employment from my employer. Instead I was requested to fill in information pertaining to household expenses.

@BBall1 Brenda meant the Find tool (🔍) , not help.
