Do I have to file taxes in Canada if I live abroad?

If you're a Canadian living abroad, taxes regulations require you to declare the net income earned outside of Canada when filing your tax returns to avail your non-refundable tax credits. So even though you won't be paying income tax, the amount of non-refundable tax credits you can claim in Canada will be affected.

Depending on how long you were out of the country - your residency may have changed also.

For more information please contact the CRA at 1-800-959-8281.
