I'll have a look at my 1116 more closely - I haven't filed my Canadian taxes yet so the info in 1116 is just an estimate. I think something isn't quite adding up. The software is adjusting line 18 for me, since I have some Canadian stocks at a long term gain. When I adjust 1a by the corresponding am...

I was worried because I remember hearing that the amount I'm allowed to claim on the Canadian return is limited to the amount a non-USC would have to pay.

Hi nelsona, Thanks so much - this answers my question. I am a US citizen, so the W9 wasn't a mistake.

US dividends and tax withholding
Hello, This is probably a trivial question but I can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone on this. If a US citizen living in Canada has a brokerage account with US stocks and ETFs in it, and has submitted a W9 to open the account, is there still a 15% tax withholding on dividends? If so, what...

Open a TFSA - hold only US mutual funds and ETFs
I had an idea I want to float: For a USC resident in Canada, who doesn't mind 3520/3520A reporting, and wants to get around PFIC report without the risk of holding only stocks; Is it possible to hold US dollar, US domiciled mutual funds and ETFs in a TFSA? I guess the dividends and distributions wou...

Hi gerrymeyers, I was in a similar situation, I was born in Canada as well, didn't know I had to file, then hired an accountant to fix my problem almost 2 years ago. My accountant back filed 6 years of FBARs and tax returns for me - this was before the streamlined process. For your case - having big...
