Thanks.

I purchase an item from a U.S. source and ship to a border point within the U.S. I then pick up the item in the U.S. and transport it across the border into Canada myself. At the border...

Income Splitting in Canada
Now that the Canadian government is promising income splitting, I'm wondering how that might impact U.S. citizens living in Canada like my wife.

exPenn: In another thread (http://forums.serbinski.com/viewtopic.php?t=8370), Dalthien provided an interesting link that suggests that IRS sometimes decides that joint accounts should not be taxed 50-50 (http://www.woodllp.com/Publications/Articles/pdf/Who_Pays_Tax_On_Joint_Bank_Accounts.pdf).

Grantor of, or Transferor to, a Foreign Trust?
Probably a dumb question, but on Part III of Schedule B, I see the above language. So can anyone explain these terms:
"grantor of"
"transferor to"
Thanks.
"grantor of"
"transferor to"
Thanks.
