TFSA - Need to report?

Post by dazealex2 »

Hello!

I closed out my TFSAs before I left Canada for the US last year in January. My family joined me in April after they sold the home. So technically, this April date is when we became emigrants of Canada.

I know I have to do the FBAR, but that's for everyone with funds in excess of 10K.

But kind of unsure about the TFSAs.

Would appreciate some advice on when and which form is needed to be submitted by. I believe the FBAR is due June 30th, if I am not mistaken (and can be submitted online as it is a fillable PDF). Is the TFSA form the same way?

Thanks!
