Remember To File Your Departure Return
When you leave Canada, you must report most property (with the exception of cash and most retirement plans) with a total value of more than $25,000 to the CRA. You are deemed to have disposed of and reacquired the property on the date of departure and may be liable for a taxable gain. The departure form T1161 must also be filed even if you are not deemed to have disposed of any property. The form must be filed on or before your tax-return filing due date for the year that you leave Canada to avoid penalties. Contact our team for more information or assistance.
