Re: Claiming medical, disability by NR Canadian Selling Rental Property

No. The 216 return has no provision for lowering taxes other than RRSP contributions, FHSA contributions or some legal fees. 216 is designed to determine taxation of rental income and expenses only. If you have other income in Canada that would be reportable on a non-resident return (including a 217...

Re: NR7 timing

Be careful. If you received this payment in ONE withdrawal, you were correctly withheld. Hope you didn't goof on your withdrawal request. To get the 15%, you must FIRST make withdrawals that total less than 10% of your Beginning of year value. Then, if you need more, all withdrawals that put you ove...

Re: CPP Disability Child Benefit as Non-Resident of Canada

Article XVIII.5(b) would apply in this case IF the that benefit would not be taxable in Canada when you lived there.

Was it?

If not, it is not taxable in US either.

If it was, then it would fall under the taxation rules for Social Security Disability payments.

Re: IRA to RRSP transfer

Pension income from US, since it was not periodic, is NOT limited to the 15%, so the Cdn form should not be limiting your US tax,

Re: Form 1116

CPP/OAS/SS are simply excluded from reporting on your 1040. So there is no need for any 1116 for these items, since there is no US tax to recover.

Re: When To Report Form 8833 To IRS

1. It should have been included on your 2021 1040 (if you chose to file a 1040 that year), or definitely on 2022 return.
2. As the Rev Proc points out, the treaty article is XIII(7).

Re: Optimal Strategy to withdraw from large RRSPs as Non-Residents.

Your 25% tax (or 15%) from RRIF will never be lower if you move back to Canada, no matter how slowly you withdraw the funds, unless that is your only source of low income, which, by judging from your current income, is very unlikely. Converting to a RRIF gives you the lowest Cdn tax, and will likely...
