If your income has come from a research contract, you can deduct research expenses from that income if you have a business account number with Revenue Canada (easy to get) and you file a professional (or business) activity statement (T2125) along with your T1.

I understand I'd need to have a form T2200 on file with the university, but I'm curious if others have done this.
