Budget to address cross-border pension issue

Post by nelsona »

From:

"More mobility for Canadians working in the U.S., with further harmonization of the tax treatment of pension contributions in the two countries and new rules to clarify the treatment of stock options."

This undoubtedly refers to measures to mesh the treatment RRSP and 401(k)/IRA contributions on both sides of border.

Still to be negociated and ratified of course, so don't act yet.
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
