I did add the severence to my income and reported that on my 1040. I rolled all my severence pay from the Forces to my RRSP (except for the holiday pay, which they paid me out as just normal income reported on a T4A slip) I do belive Canada did not take any taxes off of that severence because it was...

Sorry, this was to be in the 8891 forum!!, Wish we had a delete feature, Very sorry

I'm a bit confused dealing with my RRSP. I submitted form 8891 last yr for the first time. checked box 6a NO, and checked the box in 6C. And put in my amount in line 8. This yr, I assume for line 6A, I have to check YES. Line 6b will be 2004, Line 7a will be ZERO, as I have not received any $$ from ...

Hello. Quick bit of info: Non resident of Canada since Dec 2004, Permanent resident of USA Since then, and I am married. Commencing in Jan 2005 I received EI benefits from Canada. They took off the non resident tax of 25%, I had no USA income for 2005, I'm a student (not considered full time though)...

There was no fees if you "wired" the $$ electronically. No fees from the Cdn bank acct, no fees from Customhouse and no fees from my USA bank, Wachovia. The rates I was getting was always better than what my USA bank Wachovia was giving me, and no hassles, sit at home sip my coffee and mak...

No problems with Custom House. Takes a few days to set up the account. You have to fax or scan then email in(via there secure site) ID and bank info. After that they will phone you for a short interview and if all goes well, shortly after that, your acct is activated!! Very easy to trade $$$ and the...

http://www.customhouse.com/ When I was transferring smal amounts of $$$ from my CDn account to my American account I used the Custom House. Was free and better rates than the bank. There are better placers to get better rates of course, but this was hassle free and could do it at my pwn time. My wac...

Yep that is the one. Wasn't that long ago, not sure exactly in the forum, but I'm certain it was there I read a positive response for Serbinski.

I'm a Cdn residing in the USA (perm resident) and on an immigration forum that I visit a fair bit, a couple (1 cdn the other American) Used our forum host to do the taxes and they were very pleased.

I ended up going to Jackson Hewitt and in most cases they are probably not much better than H&R block,lol. At least this fellow listened to me, did some research and said I was correct (Thank you nelson) This year I wil ltry to do them on my own. Think Jackson hewitt (or is it hewiit jackson?) c...
