I have a T2200 with some of my expenses shown, but not all. Do I also input expenses work did not pay for in my return?

If you have a T2200 form that shows some of your work-related expenses, but not all of them, you may still be able to claim additional expenses on your tax return.

You should carefully review the list of eligible work-related expenses provided by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and determine if you have any additional expenses that meet the criteria for deduction. If you do, you can include these expenses on your tax return, even if they are not listed on your T2200 form.

Eligible expenses you can claim under the T2200 form include:

• Accounting and legal fees: legal fees to establish the right of salary
• Travel expenses: meals, lodging, and transportation other than motor vehicle expenses
• Parking: only during work time and not at the main employer’s workplace
• Office supplies: consumable expenses such as pens, paper, cleaning supplies, etc.
• Salary expenses: salary paid to an assistant
• Office rent: renting a space to work or meet clients
• Motor vehicle expense: vehicle operating expenses and capital cost allowance (CCA)
• Work-space-in-the-home expenses: percentage of the home expenses related to earning income

However, it's important to note that you must have receipts or other documentation to support any expenses that you claim on your tax return. Additionally, you should only claim expenses that you have not already been reimbursed for by your employer.
