My client moved to the USA last year (2024) He has a T4 from his Canadian employer and some income from the USA. He reported to CRA regarding his move. He Sold his principal home in Canada. how should he file his tax return in Canada? Can he file his taxes on T1 along with his USA income on the foreign sheet?
Depends on where he is considered “resident” for tax purposes:
I used the link you sent me; according to this, my client is a non-resident. He worked in Canada until Sept and has T4. He still has a Canadian bank account and RRSP with a Canadian Bank. He also worked in the USA after he left Canada. I reported his T4 and USA income in the foreign sheet in TC. I entered the exit date in the info sheet. He only sold his principal home in Canada and does not need to complete a T1161.
This is my first time preparing a non-resident return. Am I missing anything, or is this right?
