That is what happens when you fish for compliments :lol:

So, what do you think,
Is there any validity, to our accountant's assertion?

Thanks again

Yes, I am using turbotax (but I know that you do not answer software related questions). When I figure out my tax using turbotax and the 2555 (not the 1116), the software shows that I am entitled to the child tax credit (refundable) and that I would be receiving $3000.00 (for 3 kids).
Thanks

Thank you for your repsonse.
I have paid FICA for 2007 incorrectly. Can I get that back from the IRS, or do I take FICA withheld, as foreign taxes paid on my Canadian tax return?
Thank you

That is exactly why I care what you think. Our accountant is brilliant, just from the stone age-meaning that he is old school in terms of technology, he does not trust email and anything internet related.

I am a Canadian resident and US citizen. I would like to file my Canadian/Quebec taxes electronically. Our accountant is good, (however he is from the stone age) suggests that I mail my return in, and send the supporting documentation, the 1040. w-2, (in addition to all the Ts) donation receipts wit...

Thank you for the quick response

fomr the CRA's website, Can I claim donations made to U.S. charities? Generally, you cannot claim donations made to U.S. charities on your Canadian income tax. However, if you have U.S. income, you can claim the eligible amount of any gifts to U.S. charities that would be allowed on a U.S. return up...

I checked there before I posted here, I could not find any information related to my situation. Calling the IRS, is not a good idea, as pointed out many times in this forum.

I have searched the forum for any information relating to the stimulus rebate, I haven't been able to find anything.
AS a US citizen living in Canada, am I eligible to receive the stimulus rebate? Do I also have to have earned income?
Thanks
