Hi All
In 2016 Canadian tax, I have been successfully made as nonresident by CRA.
In 2017, I had final income from my work in Canada.
So, as a non-resident, how much portion of my Australian income can I put for "Amount of foreign tax treaty"?
Thanks
Hi,
As a non-resident of Canada, you are only taxable in Canada on your Canadian employment income. Your Australian income is not taxable in Canada.
However, for the purposes of determining your eligibility for Canadian tax credits, you must report your Australian income on Schedule A - Statement of World Income. If more than 90% of your income is from Canada, you will be able to claim most of the Canadian tax credits.
