Health Benefits Trust Fund
Hi, in advance, I think this is likely a non-issue, but: I am possibly going to be able to access group health insurance which is paid out of a "Health Benefits Trust Fund." I recognize this is not an uncommon form of group health insurance in Canada, and since it's really good insurance, ...

transferring funds to spouse
Hi, sorry in advance if the answer to this question is blindingly obvious. I am a dual US/Canadian citizen; my wife is a Canadian citizen. My wife just withdrew a bunch of money from a non-registered account and a TFSA to purchase a cottage property. In retrospect, I probably should have just paid f...

account reportable on FBAR form?
Hi, I am a dual US/Canadian citizen, but my wife only has Canadian citizenship and doesn't file US taxes. Some months we have extra money to put on our mortgage, and most of the time, if we're doing this, I call our mortgage company to request the extra payment. My wife and I are both named on the m...

FBAR with non-resident alien spouse and joint accounts
Hello, I think this question has been answered in part before, but I have a twist: I am an American citizen, my wife is a Canadian citizen. We live in Canada. We have a joint checking account. Linked to that account is HER savings account, which has only her name on it -- she has access to it; I do ...

She'd amended her original Canadian return -- the original return indicated that she'd lived in Ontario the whole year, and so she was taxed for hte year as if she were a full-time Canadian resident (i.e. paying full Canadian taxes for the whole year). But ,she'd lived in the States for part of that...

Employer Services Division of International Tax Office?
Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone on this forum has any idea what this office actually does. My wife's amended T4 has been held up with them for ~6 months, and we've never been able to find out why (no one on the phone can tell us, we've received no official correspondence, and there is no informatio...

Sailing Permit: Too late to file/what are the consequences?
Hi, I'm a US citizen, Canadian permanent resident, my wife is Canadian, and we'd moved to the US (back to the US for me) a couple of years back so that I could go to graduate school. My wife got her green card when we moved down, as we weren't sure whether or not we'd be staying, but it was only a t...
