Sponsored my parents now live in US
I have sponsored my parents to immigrate to Canada, they landed in Canada on July 2007. I am now living in the US and need to know if me being non-resident of Canada could jeopardize my parents status in Canada?
Thanks for any comment

My eyes turned blue and I am still not sure how to approach this first year tax in the US. Considering I am on TN and will be back to Canada (according to this Visa nature) why would I care to report my Cdn investments/Incomes to the US? All my Cdn income is in Cdn bank and will not be cashed or tra...

2555 or 1116
Thanks for your comments, you mentioned to exclude the income thru form 2555 OR to Apply for Tax Credit thru 1116. From you posting I'd assume that 1) I have to choose between 2555 or 1116. 2) I also understand that using 2555 gives you a better tax range in the US rather than using 1116. Am I right...
