Question

Report freelance income on US or on Canadian return?

Hi - 

 

I'm American and live and work in Canada. In past years I have filed my Canadian taxes first, as all the income I received was from Canadian companies, and then done my American taxes.

In 2022 I made about $1000 USD, while living in Canada, from an American organization. I'm very confused about whether to report this on my Canadian return (and convert to CAD$?) along with the rest of my income, or whether to leave it off the Canadian return and include it by itself on the American return. 

Any guidance would be extremely helpful - thanks!

    Since you earned the money while in Canada, you would have to report it on both your U.S. and Canadian return.  I would recommend you go to TurboTax Support CA- they will be able to help you with the conversion and reporting info for the Canadian side.
