Receiving 1099-C as CDN resident

Post by szbjsh »

If one permanently moves back to Canada (CDN resident) and receives a 1099-C several years later due to debt forgiveness.
1) Will you need to include it as income for CRA ON CDN side?
2) Will you need to file 1040-NR on US side?

Thanks,

since this is us-sourced income connected to a US business, it is reportable on 1040NR.
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
