Hey Folks,

If I'm coming to Canada for the first time on a work permit (intercompany transfer), does anyone know if my non-Canadian income for the part of the year before I moved to Canada income also taxable?

Do the newcomer income tax rules apply to me? Thank you so much for your help!

Your international income before arriving will need to be declared but will only count to determine things like tax credits and benefits.
