Line 219 - Moving expenses

Generally, if you moved at least 40 kilometres in 1999 to start a job or a business, or to study full-time at an educational institution that offers post-secondary courses, you can deduct your moving expenses from income you earned at the new location. For more information, get Form T1-M, Moving Expenses Deduction.

How to claim

Complete Form T1-M to find out what you can deduct.

Note
If you moved in 1998 but could not claim all your moving expenses in that year, you can claim the remaining expenses against income you earned in 1999 at the new location.

Receipts - Do not include your receipts or Form T1-M with your paper return. If you are using EFILE (see page 7) show them to your EFILE service provider. In either case, keep them in case we ask to see them.
