Greetings,
I have some tax/property declaring questions if you could advice please:
I became PR on June 2012. After landing in Canada, I stayed there for only 1 week and got back to my home country.
During my 1 week stay in Canada I got my SIN, Opened a bank account and Passed Drivers Test (Class 7 drivers licence).
I stayed in my relative's home during my 1 week stay, so I don't have any property, car, rent, nor a medical card in Canada .
1) I am considered a resident for tax purposes? Shall I declare my world-wide income tax for 2012?
2) I have a property valued 120.000 CAD in my home country. Even if I am not considered a resident for tax purposes, do I still have to declare this property before April 30 2013?
3) Is there something else I need to be aware before April 30, so I avoid any consequences or penalties in future from CRA or Customs (i.e. upon selling my home country property in future)
Thanks in advance.
