US Residents with Canadian Property

Canadian tax guidance for US residents who own, rent, inherit, or sell Canadian real estate.

Service Overview

US residents with Canadian property may have Canadian tax obligations even when they live full time outside Canada. Property sales, rental income, capital gains, and withholding rules can all create Canadian filing requirements.

The Canada and United States tax relationship can reduce some confusion, but it does not remove the need to follow Canadian procedures. T2062 clearance, rental income reporting, withholding, and treaty considerations must be reviewed carefully.

Proficiency Tax helps US based clients understand the Canadian side of the process. We coordinate the information needed for Canadian compliance and help clients avoid missed deadlines during property sales or rental activity.
