Re-Med: 15-06-2011
Hey everyone...

I am back after a long long time...with a question of course!
So it’s that time again where we all (considering you are in Canada) have to file the tax return…so I came across to know that I should change my status from being a single person to a married person by sending in these forms of Martial status change – I already did this last month. Now when I am filing my return, I am putting myself as a married person and adding my spouse too but also saying that he is not a Canadian resident and not claiming any of the associated credits. I was just wondering if I am doing it right and if there is someone who is aware of any tax implications here that he/she would like to share? I am an accountant so I prefer filing my own return instead of watching someone else do EXACTLY what I know and then charge me money for it. No problems at all except this sponsorship has left me with questions . Any help would be appreciated!

O and yes – regarding my time-line just for those who always ask:
Filed my case in March 2010
AOR dated June 2010
Medical expired Feb 2011
Still waiting for them to realize that they are sitting on his expired medical…and hopefully they will do something soon :-X

Maximus one quick question, did you write to chc inquiring about your application or they just randomly emailed you and please can you share the email address that you write them on because whenever i email them i never get any specific reply to my queries they always send me an automated reply ( i use the site for case-specific inquiry for my queries)
