For a self-employed person, can we write off professional development / course fees? And if so, WHERE? There's no prompt to enter this info.

    As per CRA: You cannot deduct the cost of a training course as an employment expense if the course is for personal reasons, the cost is unreasonable, or you receive a lasting benefit from the course.
