As to whether or not wind-up is a dispostion, I would be relying on IT-126R2 rather than anything that has been said here. .... the issue as I see it is not whether or not a wind-up is a dispostion, but whether or not a wind-up is a sale of shares that triggers payment of departure tax. byw, I'm not...

I would think you would have needed to do this before leaving Canada. .."the T1244 states definitively you do not have to pay until asset disposed of. I have called CRA to confirm deferral. To be clear, you do not need to pay the departure tax, so long as there are assets against it (collateral...

You still haven't shown why there is an issue with past IRS filings concerning my mother. You're are implying that there is an IRS requirement for US Canadian non-residents to report undistributed income earned in an Canadian company ....

"EXACTLY!!! Find someone who does. How often do you need to be told. You screwed yourself, now don't screw up mum's nest egg too." 1. I haven't paid the departure tax it's only differed, so I am not out of pocket. 2. I haven't wound up my company, so there is no deemed dividend to pay. I d...

Nelsona: to clarify. "Now you say you were told it could." ... this advice was given to me by cnd. advisor and I accept that you and JCGA are correct when you state " both JCGA and I have brought up, you took a dividend, not proceeds from sale." So I accept that what you are stat...

I do not know how things got so confused. The issue is this: 1. On Aug 2009 I left Canada for a university job in the USA. 2. In Canada I did consulting revenue and invested in marketable securities via a CCPC that allowed low rate of tax on business income (and refundable taxes on taxable dividends...
