RevCanada's T777 vs UFile T777

[Mar123]

Last year, the WFH credit was a flat rate for those without a contract specifying so.  This flat rate calculation was removed by RevCanada, and now we must fill out a T2200 and T777 to get the credit.

I am a salaried employee, now permanently WFH without it being explicitly stated in my contract.  Form T2200 is easy to fill out, but when following directions in RevCanada's T777, I get an amount in Box 17 (equates to line 22900 in the return) that is very different from that calculated in UFile.  On page 3 of 5 the example calculation shows the percent home utilized which is then used to calculate the employment-use percentage, which is then used to calculate the employment-use amount.  This does not appear to be used in UFile at all. 

I am uncertain what exactly to believe and do not want to be audited.  Is anyone esle seeing this difference or am I doing something wrong?

Hello Mar123,

T777  WFH expenses

Amount is prorated as follows :

 

>>Percentage (%) of home being used for personal purposes  [90%]  < = = = 10% will be applied to T777

 

 

>>10 % * $7,000.00 =  $700.00
