I am retired, and receiving an employment pension, CPP and OAS. Last year, I did a bit of consulting for my old employer, and charged them $1000. I don't have a business, I had no business expenses, I invoiced them directly as an independent contractor and was paid by cheque, with no deductions taken off. Where am I supposed to enter this income? I looked at Professional Income Boxes 13699 and 13700 on line 23 of the T1 General, which leads me into a T2125 P1 and a whole mess of questions for what I thought should be a simple declaration! Any help would be appreciated...
You can report the income as "Other Employment Income". In TurboTax Desktop Forms mode, use the EMPL worksheet.
What if i'm using turbo tax online tool to submit my return but i did not find any other employment income box, i have T4 and T4E where should i add other employment income.
If you have other self-employment income, you will go back to the Self-Employment sections and click on edit. Continue through until you see the following:
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
Its not self employment, so my T4 is from my previous employer full time role and then T4E from EI and then i did 4 week work for company without any contract so its kind of other income but on Turbo tax online where should i add other income?
If the income is more than $3,500, you need to pay CPP contributions on that income, so you must enter it as self-employment income.
If the income is less than $3,500, you can enter it as other employment income.
