For a few of my newcomer clients who have no world income before coming to Canada, CRA is reassessing their non-refundable credits to as part- year resident (prorating to number of days, where as before even if you were a part resident and didnt earn any income before coming to Canada for the year, then they were able to claim full exemption of $15,705 but not they are sending assessments that these have been adjusted? Is this something new, is there anything can be done to get this fixed and get full credits, as its changing people’s refund drastically?
