Question

I received a T4E for 2k which was due to a reversal of payment from Covid benefits in 2020. How do I adjust the T4E so I am not taxed twice?

I already paid taxes on this amount in 2020 and did not receive the $2000 during 2023.

    Which box on the T4E did they enter the amount on?

    April 25, 2024

    Total Benefits paid Line 14 - $2,000

    Overpayment recovered/repaid Line 26 - $2,000

    Total repayment Line 30 - $2,000

     

    It's included in my income but I did not receive $2,000 last year. The repayment was reversed and finalized during 2023.

    Box 26 and 30 show that it was an overpayment which was paid. You should not pay taxes on it again as it is showing as a paid amount.
