Hi,
I am filing my first Canadian tax filing after having moved here full time to reside for tax purposes. Can someone summarize the important must-dos.
1) Canadian income - gained from the day moved here to reside full time for tax purposes;
2) World Income - gained from the day moved here to reside full time for tax purposes - including foreign rental income from overseas apartment that one possesses and income overseas consulting work;
That is pretty much it. YES ? Also, can anyone alert me if any special or mandatory forms have to be filled as part of this first time filing ?Also, what all supplementary documents or photocopies does one have to provide ?
I have heard that it is better to provide a simple clear-cut filing with maybe - at the most - an attachment of a clear cover letter explaining that I am enclosing my first filing and related details. I was told that there is no need to confuse by giving TOO MUCH info. upfront such as extra photocopies as backgrounder unless they come back later with pointed questions.
Can someone please advise on all of the above. Thanks in advance. Much appreciate your timely insight,
