Re: 1040 XXV(1) with 8833
@Travel-ER-NURSE: Feel free :-). 1040NR (non-resident): Pay tax on US source income only (I think this is pretty much universal) 1040 (resident): Pay tax on all the (worldwide) income (I think this is also universal) Note: US treats citizens as "residents" for tax purposes immaterial of wh...

Re: 1040 XXV(1) with 8833
Good point! I have plenty of room in RRSP. I have to contribute (roughly) $4000 USD equivalent to save $2000 USD taxes to USA. I expect to pay at the most 20% tax when I withdraw from RRSP which still gives me a saving of 30% yielding $1200 USD gain (under this scenario). So, IMO is worth it. Thanks...

Re: Remote work on TN due to Pandemic. Can I continue filing using 1040NR using Article 25 Provision
Hi Joseph. You will always be invoking XXV for your tax calculation. There is another article (I can't remember off the top of my head) that you invoke to claim Canadian residency. Since you don't meet SPT you don't have to do it this time.

Re: Form W-9
When you established Vanguard accounts in USA you must have given them your social security number for 1099. So, moving to Canada has no impact as you are a US citizen. W-9 submission is for the new accounts you re going to setup in Canada (basically telling them that you're a US person; this is use...

Re: Form W-9
Submit W-9 to your financial institutions outside US (i.e., in Canada). You will also need to file FBAR with US Treasury. Deadline is April 15th I think.
If you moved in 2021 you probably have to report in 2022 only.

Re: 1040 XXV(1) with 8833
Hi nelsona,
My wife has no income. So, standard deduction using "real" 1040 (using XXV(1)) saves me 2K over 1040NR/1040 proforma (XXV(3))..

Re: Dual citizen working remotely for US company in Canada
On the options you will have to talk a tax accountant. Much depends upon how the instrument is defined. For the rest if you're returning to Canada for good you can look into something called totalization. You can use the time spent in US to get credit in Canada. Check this out: https://www.ssa.gov/i...

Re: 1040 XXV(1) with 8833
After digging deeper I realized 8833 is optional 301.6114-1(c) subsection (1)(iv). So answer to 5 is "No", However, I am going to submit it any way to make my treaty based filing explicit.
For the rest any assistance will be much appreciated.

Re: Dual Citizen Residing and Working in USA
As a US person (i.e, US tax resident ) you have to report world wide income. Of course the treaty opens up lot of exceptions. Read IRS pub 597. I see this paragraph (see below) in 597 pertaining to your question: Pensions, Annuities, Social Security, and Alimony Under Article XVIII, pensions and ann...
