Resident Tax Returns

You become a resident of Canada for income tax purposes when you establish significant residential ties in Canada. You usually establish these ties on the date you arrive in Canada and so newcomers to Canada will usually have a part year resident tax return that needs to be filed in the year of arrival. Similarly those leaving / emigrating from Canada will usually have a part year resident return in the year of departure. Canadian residents need to file taxes in every year where they need to pay taxes or want to claim refunds.  Residents may also need to complete annual foreign income verification reporting to the extent they have foreign specified assets above a certain $ threshold.

Non-Resident Tax Returns

Canadian non-residents may also have to complete a non-resident Canadian tax return. Examples of this may include working temporarily in Canada while still being a resident of another country, Section 216 non-resident tax returns for those non-residents who own Canadian rental properties, and Section 217 returns for Canadian pension income reporting.
