Income Sources Net Employment Income RPP Contribution Net Business Income (Loss) Interest income Amount 143,219 11,158 (31,345) 1,971 She is unable to find her 2020 notice of assessment with her 2021 RRSP deduction limit, however, she has provided what information she can in note 1. She adopted an 8 year-old child from the Ukraine and obtained custody on February 1, 2021. She hired a nanny for two months to help the child, Andi, get settled before she began school.

Costs paid in the year are outlined in note 2. FMV at time of inheritance Proceeds She sold two parcels of land she had inherited from her grandmother in 2020. The fair market value at the time of inheritance and the proceeds are outlined below. She entered into a financing arrangement with the buyer of parcel B to receive a 30% down payment in the year of sale, 30% in the year following the sale and the remaining 40% the year thereafter. Templates to calculate gains and losses are provided in note 3. Parcel A 97,596 72,704 Parcel B 832,014 1,047,083 She was requested to relocate by her employer and agreed thinking moving to a smaller center may be better to raise a child. For this reason she agreed to relocated from Toronto to Sarnia. She owned the home she sold in Toronto for nine years. She would like to utilize the principal residence exemption for this transaction. During this 9 years she owned a condo for four years and used the principal residence to fully exempt the gain. Costs associated with the move, and sale of her residence are contained in note 4. Emmy will use the simplified method of determining vehicle and food costs in calculating her moving expenses.
