Wrong/missing details in 1040NR filing,T1 filing joint anw?

Post by bfwireless »

As TN visa holder, I submitted 1040NR and missing some credits such as house property tax credit and attach 2555, can I joint this IRS filing together with T1 and mail to CRA? Also, can I use netfile with CRA since I have foreign tax credit to claim?
Thanks for your prompt reply

As a 104NR filer, you do not report foreign earned income, so why would you want to file 2555: your foreign income is already excluded?

Thanks Nelson.
Do I have to send 1040NR and forms together with T1 to CRA by post rather than Netfile because I claim for FTC?
