Claiming FTC for IRA early withdrawal 10% penalty tax
I know from reading this forum that Canada now allows FTC for the 10% penalty tax when a resident withdraws funds early from an IRA. I am playing around with Ufile trying to figure out how much I would need to withdraw to get my average Cdn tax rate up to 25% and use the full US withholding (15% tre...

That offers some comfort; however, I wonder how these experts arrived at their conclusion? The old T1135 instructions explicitly exempted U.S. IRA accounts. All that wording has been deleted and there are no references to pension assets in the FAQs. Is this just careless drafting on the part of CRA ...

New form T1135 and IRA assets
It looks like the CRA has a significantly revised form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) for 2013 filings. I seem to recall that the old T1135 specifically exempted U.S. IRA accounts. The new form makes no reference to IRA's or other foreign pension assets. Do IRA assets now count toward...

FBAR - Will they still accept paper forms?
According to the IRS website, beginning July 1, 2013 only electronic FBARs and mandatory and paper will be accepted: http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-&-Self-Employed/Report-of-Foreign-Bank-and-Financial-Accounts-(FBAR) This seems a ridiculous but it does appear to impact individual...

Does the decision impact the need to file any other forms? i.e. 8891 for RRSPs, 8938 foreign assets, or FBAR. Leaning towards the known (1040) versus the unknown (1040NR with 1040 attached). Been through the full year 1040 many times. Shouldn't be a big stretch to add a few dollars to the re-sourced...

Hi Nelsona, Single, no children. Earned income is less than the FEIE, so really the only US taxable earned income is 3 days worth at conference. Since there is enough passive income to use all of the standard deduction/exemption, I think this would mean US taxable, right? There will already be a 111...

Form 2555 and business trip to USA
The situation is a former CDN/US dual citizen who renounced US citizenship earlier in the year. After the renunciation date, her employer sends her to the US for a conference. She doesn't not make any money on this trip other than her normal Canadian salary. 1) If she does a full year US return for ...
