We appreciate you choosing TurboTax,
Yes, there has been changes for 2021/2022. Please contact our phone support team or contact us directly on Facebook or Twitter if you require further assistance on this matter.
Changes to the temporary flat rate method
As per CRA, the temporary flat rate method simplifies your claim for home office expenses. You are eligible to use this method if you worked more than 50% of the time from home for a period of at least four consecutive weeks in the year (2020, 2021, or 2022) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You can claim $2 for each day you worked from home during that period plus any additional days you worked at home in the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The maximum you can claim using the temporary flat rate method is up to $400 (200 working days) per individual in 2020 and up to $500 (250 working days) per individual in 2021 and in 2022.

Regardless of which version of TurboTax you are using, if you want to prepare your return together with your spouse, then you will both will be using the same version of the program, and you will both be charged the same price. You can only prepare your returns in different products if you prepare your returns separately. In previous years there was a discount for the spouse, but unfortunately, this is no longer the case.
