Declaration of Tax residence Part XIX:

[gops75]

Dear Friends,
I opened a bank account with RBC, Toronto, and after a week, I received a form - Declaration of Tax residence Part XIX for CRA.

I have two questions:
1) Because I am a new comer, (and I don't have a house -- rented or own), can I put my home country (from where I shifted from) as my permanent address. I am also doing a soft landing, and hence will be going back to home country for at least another 3 months.
2) And regarding the check boxes option -- section 2. options are 1) I am a tax resident of Canada, 2) I am a tax resident of a jurisdiction other than Canada and USA.

I guess, for the above, I have to select the second option - I am a tax resident of a jurisdiction other than Canada and USA.

Please advise ASAP. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
GV

If you have not settled in Canada you don’t need to file taxes. Look up whether you are a resident for tax purposes.
