Tax for non settle PR

[CN_70]

I got PR and landed in 2015, I opened bank saving account in Canada and after one moth I went back to work out side Canada. Since that many times I transfer amounts to my Canadian bank account and the bank start adding monthly interest (below 100$) to that account. Because I didn't settle yet in Canada and not doing tax file is there any problem for this monthly interest amount and how to solve it. I plan to settle next summer in Canada and should start tax file end of 2017

appreciate your advise

You should tell your bank that you are non resident.

Thanks for reply. Bank know but I didn't discuss with them about tax.

as you are not a resident for tax purposes, so I don't see how this is an issue. i'd suggest reading up on CRA definitions for residents for tax purposes. you don't have to file or pay canadian taxes if you don't meet the "resident for tax purposes" description.

I agree. Just because you have Canadian PR does not mean you have to pay taxes in Canada. You have to be a resident, and usually in Canada to be obligated to pay taxes in Canada.
