You should find an accountant that knows how to do this as they will need to file your taxes at the end of the year and this will be a part of that process.

@@hamash2289first the deadline is dependant on the nature of the income (rental, interest, dividend) etc, the NR4 is what was paid to the non resident and it would have the amount separated from the withholding tax. A copy needs to be distributed as per guidelines Then there is the impact of any bilateral tax treaty or convention which takes precedence over the income tax act such that the rate of withholding may be reduced. Depending on the nature of the income you can elect section 216 and claim expenses and net difference between what was remitted and actual expenditure. All the best

I'm not sure of what factors specifically because I've never heard of anyone being rejected before. It's a pretty straight forward application so I don't see why you would be rejected. It doesn't matter really because at the end of the year when you file your taxes it will all be reconciled and any taxes owed or refunds will be calculated at that time. You can call CRA directly to see if they can give you scenarios where it could be rejected.

Thanks for the amazing tutorial. I truly appreciate the flow from start to finish as it was easy to follow and absorb. I just have one question about the non-resident tax account, I noticed that you can open an account as a "Non-resident payee" while in your example you created an account with owner role "Withholding agent". Under what cases should a "Non-resident payee" account be created?
@realestategame
9 ай бұрын
That's a good question. I've never really thought about this before and I'm not a tax accountant so take my opinions with a grain of salt. If this is important to you I'd call CRA to find out directly. I would assume that you'd select the "Non-resident payee" if you were the actual non-resident who wanted to create a Non-resident tax account. I would assume you'd have created this for other tax scenarios out of my scope of expertise. Perhaps to directly pay the full 25% of the GROSS taxes payable rather than having a withholding agent who has the option of paying only 25% of the NET taxes payable with the approval of the NR6.

I'm not 100% clear on your question. As a non-resident you MUST pay taxes on your rental property no matter what. You can choose to pay 25% of the GROSS in which I don't think you need an agent or 25% of the NET where you need to follow the process in this video. I hope that answers your question.

Thanks a lot for this video. This will save me so much headache, as I am becoming a non-resindent in April. QQ though: 1. So this process needs to be done by my withholding agent, who will actually be my realtor in this case. The banking details entered in first section is the account of the agent or non resident or does it matter? Can I just open a new bank account and use that with my agent to collect rent and pay the withholding tax? 2. Also, at the end of the year when I am filing my taxes as a non-resident, this is all done by me in my own CRA account right? My agent does not need to do anything at that point? 3. Also, do initiate this process, I need to have all the properties rented already right? Asking as I will be renting my current house starting April, so I am guessing I cant start this process right now. Thanks a lot again.

1. Yes your Realtor will have to create an account as a withholding agent. If you see the my payment section you can see that anyone can make a payment for this account. You just need to have the account number. When I used to do this for my clients I usually had my clients pay me in advance and then I paid the account right after. However, you can do it whatever way you choose. 2. Yes you have to file your own taxes your agent will have nothing to do with that. Your agent has to file the NR6 for next year so that you only have to remit 25% of the net profits. 3. You must start this process as soon as you became a non-resident. If you're late to file you should contact your accountant to see how you can take care of the previous taxes. You should do this sooner than later. I wouldn't leave it longer than it should because you might have to pay penalties and interest. I hope this helps answer some of your questions.

@@realestategame Thanks a lot for the reply. 1. So my agent can just pay the withholding tax from his account, all he needs is the NR agent number? He is basically just a proxy in this case that CRA can go after if I dont pay. Can he submit the application to get this number before I become a non-resident or does it have to be after? 2. So NR6 needs to be files every year by my agent? 3. When you say I should start this process sooner, I am not sure if I can start this before I have officially become a non resident. Lets assume I know I am gonna leave Canada on April 1st. In this case, when can my agent apply to be a NR agent for me? Also, can he submit the NR6 immidietly after or does he need to wait for the NR agent confirmation letter in the mail before he can fill and submit NR6?

@@somneonfs 1. Yes that is correct. The CRA will go after him as you're not in the country anymore. I believe he can apply before. As you saw from the video it gives you a number right away. 2. Yes the NR6 has to be renewed every single year. Best time to do it is in Dec or Jan. Before tax season as they get busy at the CRA. 3. If you're leaving on April 1st I would get it started early so that when you leave you already have your NR6 approved so you're not paying 25% of the gross. He can only submit the 25% of net once he gets the NR6 approved.

If you are a non-resident you can file your taxes by yourself. However, you'll have to pay 25% of the Gross Rents every month and then get it back at the end of the year by filing a section 216. If you want to pay 25% of Net Rents you must designate an agent to do this. I believe that the tax man does this to have a resident of Canada to go after in case you don't pay your taxes. If you don't pay the agent is 100% responsible.

@realestategame
9 ай бұрын
I'm not quite understanding your question but if I were to rephrase it are you asking if you could use your last months interest payment to calculate it for the year? The short answer is you can put down whatever numbers you want to get the approval. You'll have to report your final numbers on your tax filing at the end of the year. Therefore the numbers will be adjusted accordingly. So yes you can just put the last months interest payment and then multiply it by 12 so you get the year then use this number to reduce your rental income so you can get the approval to pay only the 25% of net rent. Then at the end of the year you adjust it with the real numbers when you get your final mortgage statement with the actual interest numbers. I hope that answers your question.

Yes it is compulsory to appoint an agent. If you don't pay then the Agent is responsible for the taxes. I think this is the way the government protects themselves by holding someone living in the country accountable for the taxes. If you don't have anyone to do this for you there are management companies that do charge you a fee to do this on your behalf.
