My husband is a Canadian citizen, but a super busy one, and in this case on the day I did the RESP he wasn't there. But I think I am going to definitely see what the possibilities are at Scotiabank, even if it involves closing the thing out and opening another one with my name nowhere near it. My da...

RESPs with U.S Citizen Subsciber--any hope?
As a U.S. citizen living as a permanent resident in Canada indefinitely, I naively opened an RESP for my daughter in a vain attempt to provide her with the financial security long-term college savings provides. Now I am panicking because I had no idea how complicated this RESP is to report to the IR...

Foreign income as CA self-employment income?
I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question, but this is my first self-employed year. I do contract consulting work with one U.S.-based company out of my home. They have filed a 1099 miscellaneous income form for me for the fees they paid me (in U.S. currency) for 2008. I was a full-year Can...

dude, the saddest part is that the returns appear to be completed correctly, it was the secretary responsible for stuffing everything into the envelope that messed up. Should I resubmit the original T1 Adjustment request to the International Tax Services Office with my 2007 1040 and W-2 as insurance...

Honestly? I am almost afraid that HRB didn't send a copy of my 1040 or W-2 to Revenue Canada, in my original return or with the T1 adjustment. Which is why Canada believes me to owe them 3000 dollars and my adjustment is still hanging out somewhere in limbo. It makes me so sick that I don't think I ...

Thanks, nelsona. In 2007, I continued to work for my former U.S. employer even after living in Canada. My U.S employer kept me on their payroll, and thus had filed a W-2 for me for the entirety of 2007. It seems what HRB did was to have me pay full year taxes to the U.S., and then claim foreign tax ...

T1 Adjustments: How long does it take?
I am a U.S. citizen living as a permanent resident in Canada. In 2007, I claimed a federal foreign tax credit and a provincial foreign tax credit on my Canadian return for the taxes that I owed to the United States (in 2007, I spent half the year in Canada, and half in the U.S.). However, my tax pre...
