For employees to claim work-related expenses—like home office costs—on their tax return, they need a completed Form T2200, Declaration of Conditions of Employment, from their employer.
With the rise of remote and hybrid work, more employers than ever are issuing T2200 forms. To keep up with these changes, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has updated Form T2200 for the 2024 tax year. As a business owner, it’s crucial to stay compliant and ensure your employees receive the correct documentation.
Employee Home Office Expense Deductions: What’s Changed?
The eligibility rules, calculation methods, and deductible expenses remain the same as in 2023. Employees can only claim home office expenses if their contract of employment requires them to work from home.
However, the CRA now recognizes formal telework arrangements, meaning employees who voluntarily work from home under an agreement with their employer may still qualify. While this agreement can be written or verbal, the CRA does not define “formal telework arrangement,” making it essential for businesses to have a clear process for issuing Form T2200.
