    Unfortunately, you are not eligible to claim moving expenses. 

    As per the Canada Revenue Agency's webpage: Line 21900 – Moving expenses 

    Generally, you can claim moving expenses you paid in the year if both of the following apply:

    • you moved to work or to run a business at a new location, or you moved to study courses as a full-time student enrolled in a post-secondary program at a university, a college, or other educational institution
    • your new home must be at least 40 kilometres closer (by the shortest public route) to your new work location or school
