T4A Box 205 entry

Where do I enter the value for T4A box 205 One-time payment for older seniors?

[haunruh]

DISREGARD ... found the answer. It is in the Additional Information "down-triangle" list.

I've been struggling with this same problem, and it seems to me that nothing I try is the correct solution.

Would you be willing to give me step-by-step instruction through the Interview process on.

I would certainly appreciate your help.

Add a T4A and open it up. About half way down the screen is the heading "OTHER INFORMATION (COVID-19 benefits) (click the triangle to see..."

Click the triangle and scroll down to the item that says "[205] One-time payment for older seniors".

On the back of the T4A, right-hand column, go to the heading "Enter on line 13000".  The last item under this heading is Box 205, One-time payment for older seniors".   

So your $500 benefit will be entered in Line 13000 of your return.

Fine, but I entered the $500 amount from Service Canada’s T4 slip correctly but this amount is now included twice, in line 11500 and line 13000 of my return. I know it should be in line 13000 only and not in line 11500.

How do I remove it from line 11500 so that I do not pay income tax twice on the same revenue.?
