Worker's compensation benefits outside Quebec

The benefits received from a public compensation plan outside Québec must be included in the calculation of your net income. These benefits may have been paid under a law of Canada or a province other than Quebec. If the amount of benefits received appears on a T5007 slip, here are the steps to follow to report this information:

1- On the "Left side menu on the Interview tab", select the "Interview setup".

2- On the right-hand side of the screen, go to the "Employment and other benefits" group, check the box for "Social assistance, worker's compensation (T5007/RL-5)" and click "Next" at the bottom of the page.

3- Return to the "Left side menu on the Interview tab" and select "Social assistance, worker's compensation".

4- On the right-hand side page, click on the plus "+" icon next to the line "T5007 - Use only for indemnities received from a province other than Quebec".

5- Fill out the page based on the information you have. For resident of Quebec. This will allow the program to correctly calculate the amount of adjustment for income replacement indemnities (Quebec line 358) and, if applicable, to generate Form TP-752.0.0.6 (Adjustment for Income Replacement Indemnities Received from a Public Compensation Plan Outside Québec).

The program will report the amount on line 14400 of the federal return. However, to reduce the taxable income, the program will deduct the amount on federal line 25000.

For the Quebec return, the amount will be entered by the program on line 148 and Code 06 will appear on line 145. Likewise, to reduce the taxable income, the same amount will be entered on Quebec line 295.
