In US on TN while working remotely (and paid by) Canadian

Post by fuse »

Hi,

I live and work in the US thanks to a TN status. However, I am paid by the Canadian office I was originally hired (company has offices in the US and Canada). Therefore, I will have a T4 and will remain on Canadian benefits for the 2 year period I am in the US.

My question is: what is the impact, if any, on US taxes? Should I even file taxes in the US? Any comments or advice will help.

Thanks
