Why does he need his american expert? Your Cdn tax return, properly filed, will have NO US income on it. You might as well have moved to Tibet. There is no need for an american expert to file your Cdn departure tax return, since you will not be reporting any US income, and thus will not need to clai...

T1-ADJ is the starting point for changing your return.

I thought you said you already filed your return. If you did, the on-line services are pointless, since you are filing an amended return.

If you have not filed yet, tell your CPA to stop sitting on his brains and get busy.

Look at the "Emigrants" guide. Do not submit form NR73 unless the government asks for it, regardless of what your jerk-off acct says. Why would you have paid an accountant lots of money to do what he treated like an "ordinary" return, which is all the service he did for you. you ...

The problem is you ahve already listened to this guy, and he filed incorrectly. Now, in order to coirrect this, you will have to correct it with the date, and fulfill all the other requirements of departure return, which includes a couple of forms. he should have done this in the first place, but wa...

first off, are you sure you should be filing a non-resident return? If you left canada in 2006, you file a DEPARTURE return, which is a normal return but with a departure date (and QC return would also be filed, with same departure date). If you left Canada in 2005 or earlier, you only file non-resi...

The ability to obtain the tax treatment as described above can be jeopardized i...

The way to correct this is by sending a letter to CRA (International) with a copy of the T5 and a checque for the proper withholding. You should contact the payor and reitertae that you are a US resident (sometimes the mere fact of giving them a US permanent adress just 'click' in them that you are ...

Sounds false to me. RRSPs set up with a bank or brokrage are foreign trusts, so why would an RESP not be. 8891 replaces 3520 for RRSPs only.

Sounds like someone is lazy to give you paperwork.

Reread what I and the treaty say, please.

I think I answered that.

2555 excludes your Cdn wages from IRS taxation.

In fact, for most provinces, as soon as you move, you are no longer considered a resident for helthcare purposes.

It does not matter whether you claim residency or not; once you leave canada for 6 months (7 for ontario) you are no longer covered by Cdn healthcare. But that is why you have coverage with your job. Anyways, the advice you got from whomever you spoke to was wrong 9not surprising). I hope it did not...
