Re: Article XXV for Canadian Residents
told my friend about the pro forma and all that stuff that I learned about here. My friend calls the IRS international help to get that he felt he needed and he was told that they never heard of this. Does this make sense to anyone?

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
nelsona,
Thank you so much for all your help.
Just one more question about the pro forma 1040, do we need to fill any schedule and submit them along with the 1040NR XXV (3) and pages 1 and 2 of the fake 1040.

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
nelsona, I totally get what you are saying. I am just trying to grasp what the other implications might be, since I will only have my US income to report. I have no rental income, no savings account and the foreign interest income is not even mine since it is my wife's money (although it is a joint ...

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
nelsona thank you so much for ur input. here is the thing, tactics wise I was thinking ahead for next year 2019. I mean even for this year I came ahead by a couple hundred dollars when I ran it as a true 1040 because I only have US income myself. Where as when I run it as 1040NR w/ pro forma, it has...

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
nelsona, I am going to have to bug again. Hopefully I will keep it short and simple to get you valuable (as always) advice. I ran all 3 scenarios last night that you mentioned: a true 1040 MFS, a 1040NR, and the 1040NR XXV (3) with pro forma 1040 I kept it simple with no CTC or OCD. For true 1040 MF...

Re: Article XXV for Canadian Residents
nelsona, Thank you for your continued input. I had read that example about other dependent in Mexico, and what you said makes complete sense, that perhaps we can claim the OCD under the treaty but in the Mexico example that person did not qualify to get the OCD, so a Canadian would then be in same p...

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
nikitapunch,
In your reply about the Child Tax Credit, you mention Article XXV (25), but I do not think that exists since XXV goes up to (10) so if you could please clarify what you meant. Thanks

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
adeboloj,
yes amount for child care expenses would of course have to be converted to USD (rate is 1.297 for 2018) divide whatever you paid in Canada by 1.297 to get the USD amount.

Re: Child Tax Credit and World Income Reporting
For the child care expenses (line 47), I cannot see why you cannot claim that as long as you qualify according to the instructions for that line, to the below mentioned 5 requirements: 1. Your filing status may be single, head of household, qualifying widow(er) with dependent child, or married filin...
