QUESTION:
My wife is not employed. But she did some computer work from home. And she
got paid. The GST & PST were not inclided with the PAY. Does she have to pay
the GST & PST.
Under which category she should file her taxes? self employed or ...
(T2124)? what about if she does not have a business number?
Can you help ...
==============
david ingram replies:
Your wife is self-employed and will file form T2124. She will merely use
her Social Insurance Number as identification.
She can depreciate her computer and desk and write off part or all of her
internet and claim an office in the home expenses.
She did not have to charge GST unless she registered herself or her "gross"
charges exceeded $30,000.
When she first realizes she will exceed $30,000 gross for the year (even if
at only $15,000 at the time), she must register and charge GST. GST does
not cost a commercial account anything because the commercial account will
just claim it as a credit on their GST return.
For your wife, she would then get the advantage of being able to claim the
GST back that she has paid out.
