Hi,all:
I'm new to this forum. I learned a lot from your posting. It's helpful.
I have similar questions regarding TN & Tax need inputs.
The senario is:
1. I got offer from the States.
2. I'll start my work Jan. 2006.
3. My wife will go with me. That's whole family in Canada.
4. She is a housewife. We're Canadian citizens.
5. We have no property in Canada. I'm renting.
6. I have a car, RRSP, share of stock, membership of PEO
7. I have credit cards, GIC, driver licence.
My questions are:
a. What's the procedures to get TN visa?
b. What kind of visa my wife should have?
c. Will she get SSN from the States as well? She has no plan to work in the States.
d. What would be the best preparation in Canada, I mean what I'm allowed to keep, for the situation like me to be a non-resident for income tax purpose?
e.What kind of forms I should file in Canada?
I'm flexible as long as I don't have to pay double tax in Canada & the States.
Thanks for your inputs in advance.
