California working in California on a TN Visa - T1161
I am a Canadian citizen working in California on a TN Visa. I came here in October 2003. Can you help me file my taxes in Canada and the US. How much will it cost? My girlfiend had or first child on March 15, 2004. Can you give us advice on immigration matters? Thank you, --------------------------------- david ingram replies: My charge for California the US 1040 and the Departing Canada returns is usually $700 to $1,400 Canadian - rarely less and rarely over. You need to file a departing Canadian return and we have to account for any RRSP's or mutual funds and other assets you had when you left. Usually a T1161 has to be filed and it is already late. the penalty for a late T1161 is $25.00 a day to a maximum of $2,500. You can see it at http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/t1161/t1161-03e.pdf If you need a T1161, you will likely need a T1243 http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/t1243/t1243-03b.pdf and T1244 as well. http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/t1244/t1244-03b.pdf I can and do give advice on immigration either way. If you outsmart me, I can and will and do refer you to the person that can deal with the matter. Answers to this and other similar questions can be obtained free on Air every Sunday morning.
