If you have been asked by your employer due to COVID-19 to work from home you may qualify for a tax deduction for some of your expenses. Keep all your home expense receipts such as:
- Accounting fees
- Office supplies
- Electricity, heat and water
- Maintenance
- Insurance (commission employees)
- Property taxes (commission employees)
Your employer must sign a declaration form T2200 stating you were required to work from home. And you must have a designated work space used only for work.
