Re: Pub 575 and method of taxing RRIF withdrawals
One more question on calculating the book value or "cost of the investment" for the RRSP/RRIF. As noted in a prior post on the forum, we immigrated to the US in 1993 so all RRSP contributions and realized growth would be non-taxable in the US up to that point. We returned to Canada in 2003...

At the time of emigration I held only one asset (foreign in the US) to which the rule would apply. (All other assets had been capitalized before departure -- the remaining asset h...

We are dual CDN/US citizens ages 67/64 currently living in Canada but departing permanently to the US later this year. Is it necessary to convert our RRSPs to RRIFs before departure or can this be done after departure? Any advantage to one vs. the other? thanks
