Frequently asked questions
It’s important to properly determine your Canadian tax residency status in order to file your tax return correctly.
In short, you are considered a non-resident miner in Canada if:
- You normally live in another country and are not considered a resident of Canada, or
you do not have significant residential ties in Canada; - You lived outside Canada throughout the tax year, or
you stayed in Canada for less than 183 days in the tax year.
In order to report your foreign income as a non-resident, you must fill out a Federal (TD1) tax form. This form is used to determine your entitlement to personal tax credits in Canada.
In short, if you earn 90% of your income for that tax year in Canada, you can claim the credits.
In this case, you should tick ‘yes’ on the first page of the form.
However, if you earned more than 10% of your income outside Canada, you are not entitled to the credits, and you should tick ‘no’ on the first page of the form.
Self-prep means that our software will prepare all of your tax documents for you!
All you have to do is complete our easy online questionnaire, download and print your tax documents, and mail them to the CRA.
If you have overpaid tax while working in Canada, or you are entitled to claim benefits, you may be due a tax refund.
Many non-resident workers are entitled to claim tax back every year.
The easiest way to claim your tax refund is to prepare your tax documents with Sprintax Canada.
You’ll need to pay the outstanding amount to the tax office before the filing deadline.
The annual deadline for paying your taxes is typically the 30 April.
You can pay by check, bank transfer, or use your credit or debit card.
You can prepare a payment voucher, and mail it to the CRA with a check, or money order if you choose this payment method.
Sprintax Canada will provide the filled-out form for you. You will find detailed information about the method you have chosen in your instructions.
If you earn over the tax-free allowance, you can claim certain expenses, (such as medical, business, and tuition expenses) in order to reduce your tax liability.
If you intend on claim expenses, you must keep all relevant receipts.
