This is our main tax information forum which deals with topics concerning Canadians living and working in the U.S., U.S. citizens contemplating working in Canada, and all aspects of Canadian and U.S. income tax and related adminstrative issues.
I love to see people handling their taxes in january!
After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best
One more short question: do I need to file 8833 with the 1040? Any specific formulation one should use? I have tried to search the forum for this, but did not find the answer easily. Thank you.

I was on TN Visa and I filed a joint return 1040NR and ITIN for my spouse at http://www.visataxes.com
I had to report worldwide income, and i believe Canadians can claim dependents on 1040NR based on a tax treaty.
Just check your residency status also like dual status, resident, Non resident and if you are J1 research, i believe you have a 2-3 year tax exemption.
