CookiesNScream 363 Report post Posted April 6, 2010 I am located in Ontario, but I add up My receipts from all related stuff from Domme work, attach My t4's from my square work and then mail it to him. I have been claiming money from the adult film, web cam and Domme work for as long as I have been in the biz, (6 years), and it was only until the last 3 years I started saving receipts from work expenses, and now I can make money back!

I still want a good tax refund. A client of mine on another board who is an accountant in T.O. has done taxes for other ladies in the adult industry. I highly recommend him. PM if you wish to contact him via PM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazzitup 5652 Report post Posted April 14, 2010 Ladies, I am just curious about what expense claims you are permited to make. I am going to list what I think is legit, but I am NOT a tax expert and I could be wrong, so please correct me. - advertising - special outfits - condoms and lube - hotel rooms - if you see clients in your home/apartment, then some portion of the rent/mortgage as well as utilities - toys - wine/beer if you offer it - professional photo services I am sure I missed other expenses, ... just add to the list people.
