This is the case if the home was your principal residence for every year ...

Medicare & Social Insurance

When file foreign income in Canada (Canadian Resident), I think I read that I can only claim the tax but no medical or social, is that true?

Also can you file as resident from "Tax point of view" in both countries USA and Canada?

I have business Number in Canada.
I earn an income in USA as contractor W2.
When I file my tax in Canada, can I report this income on my business as if I was self employed, the reason I ask, when I was self employed in Canada I pay my tax and charge GST, none is happening any more in USA.
