Canada Employment Expenses Deductions (T777 & T2200)

Use Form T777 to calculate your allowable employment expenses. Include Form T777 with your income tax and benefit return. 

A T2200 form is a Declaration of Conditions of Employment in Canada. It is used by employees to claim work-related expenses on their tax returns. The form must be signed by the employer and indicate the expenses the employee incurred while working and the reason why they are necessary. The following expenses may be eligible to be claimed on a T2200 form:

• - Tools and equipment
• - Uniforms and safety gear
• - Home office expenses
• - Vehicle expenses
• - Supplies and materials
• - Travel expenses
• - Meals and entertainment
• -Training and education expenses

It is important to note that the expenses must be reasonable and directly related to the employee's work duties. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) may disallow expenses if they do not meet these criteria.
