1. On the "Left side menu of the Interview tab", select "T4 and employment income".

2. On the screen to your right, inside the group "Other", click on the plus "+" icon next to the option "Other employment income".

The amount will be carried over by the program on line 10400 of the federal return and, for Quebec residents, on line 107 of the Quebec return, with code 05 displayed on line 106.

These income amounts are not subject to CPP and/or QPP contributions. However, you may elect to pay CPP/QPP contributions on these amounts, to benefit upon your retirement a pension from the Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan that is calculated according to your overall income.

To make additional contributions to QPP (for residents of Québec), please follow this procedure:

2. On the screen to your right, answer "Yes" to the question "Do you wish to make additional QPP contributions on optional income such as tips?" and enter the desired amount on the line "Employment earnings not shown on a T4 slip on which you elect to pay additional QPP contributions".

To make additional contributions to CPP (for residents outside Québec), please follow this procedure:

1. Return to the "Left side menu on the Interview tab" and click again on "T4 and employment income".

2. On the screen to your right, in the group "CPT20", click on the plus "+" icon to the right of the line "CPT20 - CPP Election for Other employment earnings".

3. On the page that appears, enter the appropriate information. In the first line selected the type of employment. For the second line in the first field enter the type of income and on the second field on the right enter the gross amount of your remuneration, and finally the address of an employer.

The program will calculate and report the additional CPP payable amount on line 42100 of the federal return, whereas for Quebec residents, the QPP payable amount will be displayed on line 445 of the Quebec return.
