Open TurboTax
Hello,
I was using your most basic software package to complete my 2025 taxes for myself and my wife. While entering a T4A slip for her, I accidentally selected an answer that led me to a screen that essentially forced me to upgrade to the package that helps with self-employed filers. Neither of us is self-employed and I cannot find a way to go back to the basic package. I don't want to pay $60/person for something I'm not using. Please advise. Thank you. Matt
If you've entered an amount from any of the boxes on the slips listed here, you have what the CRA considers to be self-employment or 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. You only need to answer basic information, such as business name and address (can be your own), industry code, and fiscal period (Jan 01 to December 31).
Please see this TurboTax Canada FAQ for more information on who can use Free: Who can file for free using TurboTax?
