Hopefully someone will be able to help :)
Ok so I live in Windsor and work in the US with a TN Visa...I commute to work.
Now I know I have to file both taxes in the US and in Canada.
Here are my questions.
1. I only worked in the US for 3 months las years...Am I exempt from doing one of the taxes since I have been working there for less thatn 183 days??
2. Do I do my taxes in the US like everyone else there? Is there any special forms I have to fill out since I reside in Canada?
3. For my Canadian filing, what forms do I need to fill out? Is there somewhere where I declare foreign income?
Any tips and help is appreciated. |

This is not worth taking a risk on man.
Talk to a tax specialist, tax lawyer, or accountant. You're dealing with the IRS & Rev. Can., neither one is to messed with, let alone both.
I know for sure that on the Canadian side you'll have to file an additional T-50133 in addition to all declarations for income, regarding income earned out-of-country.
But I'm not one of the 3 people I listed above, I'm in capital investments and land-banking. So I can't really give you any more advice than that.
Good luck. |

Definently get a tax specialist. My mom used to do them last year for people but don't think she is this year. I'll ask tho...
I got a few friends who live in Windsor and commute to Detroit for work as well, i'll ask them what they do... |

I have always done my own taxes and would like to continue to do them myself, which is why I was asking for some advice.
THanks. |

Let's say that you get a some money either by Ransom...or finding a missing person...
Do I have to claim that as income?
If so...is it other income? lol |

Revenue Canada isn't so harsh
The ing IRS has more balls then our provincial police, I'd keep my P's & Q's on the US side |
