Non-resident tax in Kingston: FAQ

Quick answers to what people ask us most.

Do you offer non-resident tax in Kingston?

Yes. We provide non-resident tax to individuals and businesses in Kingston and Ottawa & Eastern Ontario. You can meet with us by phone or video and share documents securely online. Call (647) 527-4970 to get started.

How is Canadian rental income taxed for a non-resident?

Non-residents are generally subject to 25% withholding tax on gross rent. By filing a Section 216 return, tax is calculated on net rental income instead, which is often far lower. The return is due within six months of the year-end.

What is a Section 116 certificate?

When a non-resident sells taxable Canadian property such as real estate, they should notify the CRA and apply for a clearance certificate. Without one, the buyer may be required to withhold a significant part of the sale price, and the seller can face penalties.

Do I stay a Canadian tax resident after moving abroad?

It depends on your residential ties to Canada, such as a home, spouse or dependants here, and on any tax treaty. We assess your situation and file the right returns for the year you leave.

How much does non-resident tax cost in Kingston?

Fees depend on the scope and complexity of your situation. After a free consultation we give you a clear quote before any work begins.
