Re: Question about cross-border kiddie tax
Thank you nelsona. To ensure that I understand things correctly - From the CRA perspective, the interest gains are taxable at the gifting parent's rate. If such a parent is not ordinarily resident in Canada or file Canadian tax returns, then by virtue of his/her child living in Canada, this is consi...

Re: Question about cross-border kiddie tax
>> So, what is the situation regarding CRA? Is the income taxable to you? Not sure what you mean by "income"? The income source from which the federal bond is bought? (it comes from our savings) Or the income from the bond itself? The non-resident parent (who gifts the money to the toddler...

Re: Question about cross-border kiddie tax
Nelsona - In this case, one of the parents is a US citizen and not a Canadian resident. The other parent is not a US citizen and is a Canadian resident. U.S. filing status is MFS. Does this change any of the situation you described above?

RRSP / IRA + 401(k)
If one has earned income on both sides of the border (T4 + W2), as a non-Canadian resident and US citizen, what is the interaction between RRSP and IRA/401(k)? My understanding is that non-Canadian residents are able to accrue RRSP contribution room based on T4 income. If such an individual contribu...

Re: Question about FBAR and other IRS requirement on minority owned foreign (non-director) corporate account
Thank you ND. It seems to me that Part III applies to foreign bank accounts jointly owned by individuals (e.g. married couples). Does it also apply to cases where the foreign bank account is owned by a foreign corporation, whose shares are then owned in minority by a U.S. citizen who is not a direct...

Re: Subcontracting for a Canadian company
Just to be clear, the Canadian company is based in BC and will be doing the consulting work in BC.
However, as its subcontractor, I or my company will be performing the work in the United States. Neither my company nor I have any permanent establishment in Canada.

Re: Canadian subsidiary
No, it's not intended to be CCPC, we understand that. We're interested in learning the required informational or tax filings on both sides of the border and their approximate total cost per year. For example, in the U.S., I believe Form 5471 is required that can be quite intrusive (maybe a few hours...
