Thanks nelsona.

So I will need to file T2091, T1161 (and T1243?) in addition to usual tax forms. Are there any other forms I missing here that will need to be filed? Or reading and doing emigrant guide should be sufficient?

That sounds great. Thank you!

Thank you for quick reply. What exactly in my situation makes me non-resident immediately? I am pretty sure I have read about people that needed to break ties to make them non-resident. What about NR-73, do I need to file it? Anyway in 2012 when I file my last (departure) Canada tax return do I say ...

We live in Ontario. I got H1B, my wife got H4. We will move to California in one week (23 January 2011). We already sold our house, the closing date is in February. Few questions: 1. My understanding that it makes sense to max out my RRSP. This way I get some money back after my 2010 tax return and ...
