No, the  cost of getting a professional license is not considered a membership fee.  If you are working towards a certification or professional status in a trade then you may be eligible to deduct the examination fees on your taxes.  If you paid at least $100 in examination fees and meet the criteria, you may be able to claim them under the tuition tax credit , which reduces the amount of tax you owe, if any. You can claim your examination fee as a tuition expense, provided it meets the following conditions: The examination fee is a requirement for obtaining your professional status or to be certified or licensed as a person in the trades.

Thanks for choosing TurboTax. If you have claimed Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) in the past on your vehicle used for Business or Employment, you will have a number left at the end of the year known as Undepreciated Capital Cost or UCC.  If this is your first time claiming CCA on that vehicle, you will not have a UCC amount. UCC is the balance of the capital cost left for further depreciation at any given time.  For example, if you claimed the full 30% CCA on a $10,000 vehicle last year, your UCC would be $7,000  ( $10,000 - $3,000 = $7,000 UCC) https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-re... ...
