Are you an American Citizen living in Canada? Are you a Canadian citizen having income from the U.S.? Do you own investments in the U.S.? Did you win money in a Casino or a lottery in the U.S.? If yes, then you are required to file U.S. taxes.
If you are an American citizen residing in Canada, you must file two returns each year, declaring your worldwide income on each: a Canadian return because you live in Canada, and a U.S. return because you are an American citizen.
We take the worry out of tax compliance.
There are certain deductions and credits available due to tax treaties between Canada and the U.S. which will save you from double taxation. We can help you in preparing both the returns so that you will pay the least amount of taxes.
And if you’re getting notices from the IRS, we can help you resolve those as well.
The government of Canada requires tax residents of Canada to file income taxes by April 30th if there are any taxes owing on that date (June 15th if the taxpayer or their spouse is self-employed). Even if you are not owing taxes, it is still highly recommended to file your taxes on time to make sure you do not lose any tax benefits or credits.

At the beginning of the tax season, we provide our clients with a comprehensive income tax checklist so as to ensure all information required in the tax filing is done so, and that any available deductions are fully utilized.
