    H1B renewal/exrension while in Canada (Daily commute)

    I dont know when you moved but if you are recently moved then they might start asking questions and stopping at the border frequently if the border guys didnt issue new I94. it depends totally as some do and some wont try to expect paper i94 issued at border. I feel like the border guys at land...

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    I doubt that cra(or any tax office in any country) will ever agree to give the money back as they cant just get the money from irs(same with irs too). My take: If the company doesnt pay the CRA then we shouldnt and file as usual(by first filing of irs and then with cra). My colleague still...

    Canadian Passport applying from USA

    I didnt opt for expedited. No other fees for shipping as it includes everything (as its higher fees anyway for US residents). Yes of course all of them will allow for US shipping or you can apply by mail from US after the oath. Are they giving the certificate on same day nowadays? i am out of...

    Canadian Passport applying from USA

    Yes, shouldnt be an issue coming to US after oath. US just cares about whether you use non-canadian passport with visa or canadian passport. They dont worry which passport you use to travel/enter. To enter Canada, you can use the Indian passport for identification and the citizenship...

    US remote job, physically present in Canada

    Yes, my colleague is coming from windsor for 5 days a week to avoid this headache but my other two colleagues dont worry and come only 3 days a week. So it looks like its not being imposed by cra fully yet or cant do it fully yet. Not sure if they will do it in future for all. (My company still...

    US remote job, physically present in Canada

    Per my understanding, you need to have room in rrsp for the first year to contribute(which includes US pension contribution). So you may not avail this deduction for first year.

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    You wont fill the exact line number in the form as your tax software would do it when it generates the final file. So look for "Foreign Income & Foreign Tax Credits" section and just fill the foreign income and foreign tax paid.

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    I still cannot interpret if your withholding(tax at source) is being paid to IRS or CRA. I havent seen w2 tax being paid to cra hence i cannot compare or ask questions based on that. Irrelevant of above, simply follow this logic - file tax return to the country where your w2 tax is paid. Then...

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    I am not sure if you have taxes paid to US or to Canada. So file to the country where your taxes were paid to in W2 and then file to second country mentioning the taxes paid to first country(and the difference if any).

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    Usually we dont fill out the forms, line by line when we complete the return with online/offline software hence i am not sure how to interpret about what they are hinting. Here is what i did: Include your income in Canada with the total of (1040 filed total income line + 401k contribution in...

    Taxes/Payroll - Working in US/ Living in Windsor

    It doesnt matter as i was audited on both cases. For my colleague's nephew, cra sent letter saying they dont want additional documents. Thinking they are not storing those additional docs(assuming in some cases) which is why people(including myself) started to get letters on asking for the same...

    All passports are foreign passport and same after reaching cbp check point. Visa is just used to get to that first stage of cbp from a different country via commercial vehicle. So canadian too will get I94, same as H1 candidate. Not sure which threads you read or which websites you read on it...

    H1B Husband and Spouse on TN - both working in US

    I dont know anyone switched from H to TN after 140. My colleague didnt start on gc process and later switched to TN. One director was on TN but later moved to commuter gc. As the other forum member told, it seems that having 140 alone is not proving the intent. So even if border official asks...
