Sold property in Canada
Hello, I sold my property earlier this year and just got back the tax clearance. However, noticed a 25% tax on capital gain. I bought this condo as a pre construction and have been renting it out for the past few years. Does the 25% on capital gain make sense? Do I need to file this on the US side w...

Selling property in Cdn buying in US
Hello, I'm a Canadian working in the US. I'm planning to sell my condo in Toronto and transfer the money to the US for a down payment for a property in NYC.

What should I do with my 401k
Hello, I'm a Canadian working in the US (on TN, no GC). I recently switched employer and wondering what should I do with my old 401k. Some financial advisors told me to convert to Roth or other vehicles but I'm not sure if that's wise for me. Maybe good for US citizens but may not work for me. And I...

Hello, I'm a Cdn working in the US. I own a pre-construction condo in Toronto (the province that has some kind of tax for foreign buyers... I'm not entirely certain about the terms).

Thanks Nelsona. Just to clarify, did you mean that I should disclose my TFSA, trading account and bank accounts to IRS but don't need to disclose my RRSP and condo deposit? I didn't do a good job in disclosing these foreign assets when I filed my 2014 and 2015 tax returns (though when I filed my 201...

Just wanted to be more specific, I own a pre-sale condo, the actual condo won't be ready in another year or so. I guess there is no capital gain or so related to me. but to your point, I will probably need to fix my 2015 tax, right? I started working in the US around Nov. 2014 so I guess I don't nee...

Thanks nelsona. I only come back 3-4 times a year. The reason I'm still paying my Cdn tax is because I have a condo in Toronto and I am not sure if I want to lose my residency in Canada yet. Also, if I stop paying my income tax now, what will happen when I come back? I will be considered as a new co...
