As a Canadian resident filing and paying Canadian taxes, if I have an IRA from which I have extracted no money, do I have to file the Canadian tax form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement)? My IRA is the only asset I have in the US. The form basically asks the value of the assets I hold out...

I started a thread on the same subject (Managing IRA from Canada) several months ago. I am a US citizen with an IRA and have been living as a Landed Immigrant in Canada for about 16 years.

Thanks for the suggestion, us1234. Unfortunately, several years ago TD Waterhouse, along with most other US brokerages, terminated the accounts of all their clients with Canadian addresses. This was well before 9/11 and had nothing to do with security. As I understand it, it was done because the US ...

Managing IRA Account From Canada
I am a US citizen and have been living as a landed immigrant in Canada for 16 years. At the time I moved to Canada, I had an IRA account with a mutual fund company. I left it where it was and it's been accruing value since. I haven't added anything to it as I have a RRSP account in Canada. I recentl...
