Fishing

I have a T4 coded 17 and it should come up allowing me to transfer this to fishing business and it will not let me do that. Is there a problem with the system?

Should have boxes 78 and 79 completed instead of box 14.

I agree with Tim re: transfer of fishing income, but I still am curious what you mean by “coded 17”. Are you talking about “box 17” on the T4 slip, which specifies QPP contributions?

Yes Box 17 is correct. Sorry old way habits

Employment Code (Box 29) would be coded as 17 for a Fisher.

Oh! Yes. One of those boxes that I rarely look at. Non-financial info. Thanks, Tim.
