QUESTION:
My step daughter married a Canadian last year.She lives in Canada but is
employed in the USA (lives in Canadian Niagara Falls works in USA Falls).He
wants to return her in his Tax Return. She has already paid tax on Income to
the USA. Would she be liable to Canadian tax if he includes her in his
Canadian Return as a deduction?
Thank you for your attention
----------------------------
If your step daughter is living in Canada and earning money in the state of
New York, she must report the same income in Canada and is liable for
Canadian tax because she is living in Canada.
Her gross foreign income will go on line 104 and the net (les any employment
expenses not tax) will go on line 433 of the Canadian T1 General. The
state tax, social security and Medicare tax and federal income tax she paid
to the US will be put on line 431 to complete the Foreign tax credit to
Canada. Depending upon her income level, she may or may not owe more tax to
Canada.
Hope this helps:
