QUESTION:
We are holding an investment in a Canadian Mutual Fund Trust and currently
live in Vancouver, BC.  This mutual fund trust distributes its income and
capital gains annually and we are taxed according to the nature of the
income (i.e. dividends or capital gains).  We are moving to California and
are wondering whether once in Califronia we will continue to report the
capital gains and dividend income as such on the California and federal
returns.  We understand that we would not be reporting this on Canadian
returns after leaving.  Please confirm.
==================================================
david ingram replies:
You should notify the Trust that you are no longer going to be residents of Canada as of "XXXXX".
The  Trust will then start withholding  non-resident tax at 15% of actual dividends and 10% of any interest.
There is no Canadian Tax on the  capital Gains Portion.
The trust and most other assets have to be reported on form T1161 as you leave Canada
You can defer any current tax by filing form T1243
