question: hello, my accountant did not mention form td 9022 in 2007 but filed it for me in 2008, why wouldnt they mention it, are they liable in anyway? should i send it in for 2007 even though it is late? also i got h&r block to do my taxes in florida for 2009, and they say i donot need form 8891, even though the last two years i had it for rrsps in canada,i have not added to these or taking them out or transferred them, do i still need form 8891, they say i dont have canadian income or canadian tax obligation, so i dont but i am trying to tell them i need to report my rrsps every year, i dont understand how no one here in florida seems to know how to do us/canadian taxes, do you know anyone here in miami that can help me or do you prepare taxes, can i get an extension or amend these if they are wrong?

Hello. A Canadian citizen, I started a 12-month position in the US two weeks ago as an independent contractor on 1099. I read on the web that, starting 2010, I will be taxed as a US citizen if I live here for more than 183 days. What tax form(s) do I need to submit to my recruiting firm, which pays me?

I am a Canadian who has a margin account with a discount brokerage in Canada.

Can i use this margin account to borrow, to invest in a rental property in the US ?

Is the interest deductible in the US , and in Canada ?

I appreciate an answer.

My_question_is: Applicable-to-other-jurisdiction

question: Dear David,

First of all, I would like to say that your website is very insightful and has been very helpful. I am emailing you with one question in mind, will I be taxed for my worldwide income or not? In order to answer my question I do understand that you would need to know many more details so here are the points. I have been living in XXXXXXXXXXX since November 2008. In 2009, I have filled my Canadian income tax for the whole year and at that point I had a Common Law residing in the country therefore I paid my taxes. 

Currently, XXXXXXXXXXX is an income tax free country and as far as my ties to Canada I do have a bank account, credit card, driver's license and a valid passport. My salary is deposited into an offshore account and at one point during the year I did make a large transfer into my Canadian account. My bank account is still shared with my previous other half, although we are not together and  this account could be closed immediately should you recommend it.

As far as my future desires, I do not intend to come back to Canada in the short term and planning to stay in Asia Pacific. One final detail, I am employed with a Hotel company, which technically is a Canadian company, however our hotels are privately owned and I do not get paid from Canada - my contract is with the owners of our Resort here in XXXXXXXXXXX .

I look forward to your response.

Warm regards!

 Hi there . My husband and I just sold our recreation property. He didn't know that he would have to pay tax on this. I am wondering if you could give us an estimate on how much tax we would have to pay on this. We did not do any major work so no receipts. We did pay out the bank 25,000 as the main resident and property were combined. Both our names are on the titles. His income is disability 27,000 and mine is 27,406. the property was sold for 125,000 we paid 20,000, and 250 in legal fee. He wants me to mention that he spent 20,000 in improvements but no receipts over the 18 years we had it. Your advice will be greatly appreciated
