Line 45000 - Employment insurance overpayment
If you contributed more to your employment insurance (EI) premiums than you had to (see line 31200 on page 22), claim the difference on line 45000 of your return.
Note If you repaid some of the EI benefits overpayment that you received, do not claim the repayment on line 45000 of your return. You may be able to claim a deduction on line 23200 of your return for the benefits you repaid. |
The CRA will refund the excess contribution to you or use it to reduce your balance owing. If the difference is $1 or less, you may not receive a refund.
