Hi, A friend of mine is a Canadian citizen with US green card and only working in the U.S. (W-2) and has only been in Canada for about 1 week for a visit in the past year. He has no income from Canada. He filed taxes in the U.S. Should he file taxes for Canada as well? Should he pay taxes to Canada for the income he already paid taxes in the U.S? tnx
It depends on whether the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA) has determined whether he has Resident or Non-Resident status. If he has Resident status he will have to report his US income to Canada and pay Canadian tax on it. He can claim a credit for foreign tax paid for the US tax paid. If the CRA has determined he is a Non-Resident, he does not have to claim his US income. If he had take the actions necessary to become a non-resident he would most likely be aware of it.
