Cad Resident Married but Spouse not here

T1
1

I have an existing client who is a CAD citizen.

In 2025, she got married in Dec 2025.

I have entered on the T1 that she is married and entered the husbands Name/DOB. However, he doesn’t have a SIN and is a non-resident because they are working on sponsoring him.

In the software, I added the spouse info, but didn’t actually generate/create a return - however, I have no idea where to indicate he is non-resident.

If I generate a return and state he is a non-resident, the the wife’s return switches as well to show that she is a non-resident.

How do I proceed on this?

On the schedule 2 there is a spot where you can indicate the residence of the spouse.

Though she may not physically be here, so could in fact be Canadian resident. Examine the facts in light of the residency rules and the relevant Tax Treaty…
