Hello. Just wondering what did you end up doing. Soft landed in Canada, stayed 10 days and returned home. I have a bank account, credit card and TFSA. Planning to return and settle next year. I'm trying to understand if: 1) I must file taxes now or it can wait until next year 2) Am I...

I have 6K in TFSA (exact investment room for 2019). The interest rate TD offers is around 0.85 ~ 1.15%. I can see less than 50 CAD accumulated on my account for 2019. My understanding is these had already been taxed 1% per month because of me residing outside of Canada. Once it's sitting on my...

I understand. So my questions then moving forward would be: 1- How do I submit this form? Can I use email and if so where can I find the address? 2- Do you advice I get help from an accountant for all of this? 3- Is it necessary to open an account with with CRA at this stage? 4- Can all of this...

Hello. I opened up a different thread about this myself and I'm getting mixed messages. I'm in a similar situation, I soft-landed in April 2019, stayed for 10 days and returned to Europe. I never settled in Canada and planning to do so in 2020. The difference is that I have a bank account, TFSA...

Actually, for this I also checked TD's website. There is a section Eligibility for non-residents of Canada. I don't understand how much is the interest rate for TD's TFSA. However, the claim that TFSA is already 1% taxed and deducted might be true. I highly doubt that my 6K CAD contribution...

Ok. I've been digging into this today In order to be considered a resident, you need to have residential ties to Canada. Particularly, in this case it goes under Secondary residential ties –> economic ties in Canada, such as Canadian bank accounts or credit cards. However, at the same time it...

There is money in TFSA, I have used the saving account and the credit card as well. However, I'm located overseas and been ever since my soft-landing. When I opened all these accounts, TD never told me anything about these implications. OK, I'm panicking now. Is this a normal situation? What...

Hello – I'm a non-resident for 2019, been in Canada for 10 days after soft-landing. However, I opened a bank account, have a credit card and opened a TFSA with TD. The canada.ca website under residential ties lists "economic ties in Canada, such as Canadian bank accounts or credit cards" under...

Hm, I didn't know that. What should I do now?

Hello - Me and wife did soft landing back in April 2019 in Toronto. We returned after 10 days and planning to relocate and settle by the end of 2020. While in Canada, I managed to open a saving account and TFSA for myself with TD. Do we have to file taxes in Canada for 2019?

Hello To meet residency obligations, you must be physically present in Canada for at least 730 days (2 years) in every 5-year period. Let's say you don't meet these obligations and your residency status gets voided. Can you then go to US or Canada with a VISA or you will be frowned upon or...

Thanks for the replies. This move will change my country of residence right? Will this slow down my application in any way ?

Anyone?

I'm AOR June 2018. My Application is in IP1 now. I received a job offer from Germany and would want to give it a try. What should I do now? Better to reject the offer, wait and don't do any moves? If I moved there, should I raise a CSE?
