nelsona, During Bona Fide Residence test, there is a question regarding Visa Type. "Enter the type of visa under which xxx entered the foreign country". Here the foreign country is Canada? Since we are Canada citizen, I can skip this, right? Thanks!

3. I put my foreign interest in form td f 90-22.1 and take foreign credit back in ...

Nelsona, Can you explain a little bit more about "you would report that income on 1040 and then include the prorated portion of your INCOME tax (not CPP/EI) that you owed for that income only"? Where should I put it? My understanding is after I excluding my Canadian wages from form 2555, it won't be ...
