Income tax return. Can I write off work uniforms and Vocational education expenses in Canada?

We Answered:

Uniforms in relation to employment expenses, you cannot claim them. If you look in the employment expenses guide, it states this clearly. In regards to tuition expenses, uniforms cannot be claimed. However, tuition expenses can be claimed on line 323. The general rule is that it must be a post-secondary school that is able to fill out a T2202A. However, there are exceptions and if you are unsure, call CRA at 1-800-959-8281, and they can look up the school for you.

Should the United States adopt a career path or vocational education system?

We Answered:

A more Tech approach to education would be our downfall, as today's computers will not be the computers of tomorrow, so rather than teaching specific skills that have a shelf life, schools have to have a traditional Liberal Arts educational style, so students can learn to think, in that way when the future changes come (and they always have, someone with thier BS in Computers in 1979 didn't even learn about the internet, yet they're still working in the field because they're in their 50s) our workers will be prepared to understand the world and be able to find a place in it.
