Hello members,
I am currently working on H1B on work visa and my spouse is on H4 (Not working). On receiving my PR , I am planning to enroll her for a MS and I’ll continue working in USA till she completes her course (I will move to canada then)
Per Canadian tax regulations, having a spouse in Canada = having residential ties; So I need to pay Canadian tax as resident.
Do I need to pay Canadian tax on my whole US income or do I get to deduct any expenses on the USD before converting it to the CAD equivalent? As working completely outside Canada; do I get any exemptions on federal or provincial tax?
I did a rough math and the tax % seems scary
