Can I deduct a laptop for work? I do claim other business expenses (ie: cell phone, vehicle lease, fuel etc..) but do not primarily work from home.
If you use your laptop for business, you can deduct the expense. Rather than being a "usual" expense, laptops are considered to be capital costs. This simply means that instead of deducting the full cost, the expense is deducted over time - similar to your car.
Claim the cost of the laptop in the CCA (capital cost allowance) section of your return. Select 50 as the class.
