Which category do we use to classify the Ontario Trillium Benefit (OTB) in Quickbooks Online?
When you are a Sole Proprietor business, it's simply considered a personal deduction, right?

 

Should the OTB Gov Refund transaction show in your Balance Sheet like this? For example:

Personal Deductions (Gov Credits):OTB | Ontario Trillium Benefit 

 

Trying to find the best way to report it in my files.

This is a great non-answer. Yes, it is prudent to ask accountants for advice but don't you have CGA professionals working at QuickBooks to offer general advice and most common options for Canadian users, the way you would provide info in a blog page?

 

Anybody in the commmunity, knowing how to handle this best?
