T4A Not Reflecting

[Kamba]

Hi,

My T4A amount is not reflecting as an income in my returns. 

I filled the entry under [105]  Scholarships, Bursaries, and fellowship.

Please advise.

Thank you.

6 - Enter the name of the program and on the second line "Tuition fees and costs of part-time education program-related material paid for current year". This amount will be used to deduct part, or all the scholarship related to a part-time study program;

7 - For Quebec residents, if the amount in Box O of the RL-1 differs from the one shown on the T4A slip, click on the "Maple Leaf" icon to the right of the field. Another field will appear and enter the amount shown in Box O of your RL-1. This box will only be displayed if you have previously entered the federal amount or $0,00 if you have not received a T4A slip.

The amount will be transferred by the program to line 13010 of the federal return and line 154 of the Quebec return, and Code 01 will be entered on Quebec line 153 (if applicable).

However, if you are enrolled in full-time postsecondary studies, no amount will be entered on line 13010 of the federal return.

For part-time students, an amount could be reported on line 13010 of the federal return. It will be the amount of the scholarship minus the $500 basic exemption + the amount you entered at point 6.

For residents of Quebec, there is no impact, an amount will appear on line 295 of the Quebec return to reduce the amount on line 154.
