Why Hire a Departure Tax Accountant in Mississauga?
Your departure date is a conclusion, not the date on a plane ticket. CRA looks at residential ties, which means the home you kept or sold, where your spouse and children live, and secondary ties like bank accounts and a driver’s licence. Our Mississauga departure tax accountant establish that date on evidence, because every valuation on the return hangs off it.
Our accountants also decide what not to file. Form NR73 asks CRA to rule on your residency status, and it invites a review that most departing clients do not need. Our team documents the position instead and keeps NR73 in reserve for the cases where a ruling genuinely helps.
A departure return is filed once. Private company shares, foreign property and crypto holdings need a defensible value on a single day, and there is no comfortable way to revisit those figures three years later when CRA asks. Our Mississauga team builds the valuation file at the time, with the supporting evidence attached.
Solutions for Non-Residents
Specialized tax services for individuals with Canadian income, property, or cross-border obligations.
What the Deemed Disposition Covers and What It Does Not?
Our accountants value the property CRA actually treats as sold. That covers shares, mutual funds and ETFs in non-registered accounts, real estate you own outside Canada, crypto holdings, partnership interests, and personal items such as jewellery, art and collections. Our Mississauga team prices each one at fair market value on your departure date.
Our accountants leave out what CRA excludes, and that list is longer than most clients expect. Canadian real property, Canadian resource property, timber resource property, and Canadian business property carried on through a permanent establishment all stay outside the deemed disposition. So do your registered plans, meaning RRSPs, RRIFs, TFSAs, RESPs, RDSPs, PRPPs and registered pensions.
Our team checks the short term resident rule as well. Clients resident in Canada for 60 months or less during the 10 years before emigrating keep an exclusion for property they owned when they last arrived, plus anything inherited since. One catch stays behind on the Canadian house. It escapes departure tax but remains taxable Canadian property, so a later sale needs a certificate of compliance under Section 116.
Deferring Departure Tax with Form T1244
Our accountants file the election that lets you leave without paying tax on gains you have not received. Form T1244 defers payment under subsection 220(4.5) until you actually sell the property, and no interest builds in the meantime where the election is made properly and any security CRA asks for is in place. Our Mississauga team files it alongside your final return by 30 April.
Security is not needed on everything. Our accountants check the threshold first, since CRA generally looks for security only where the federal tax deferred runs past $16,500, which corresponds to roughly the first $100,000 of capital gains. Where security is required, a letter of credit from a Canadian bank is what CRA usually prefers, and our team arranges that paperwork with your bank.
Our accountants also choose which properties to defer on rather than electing across the board. A holding you intend to sell next year is often better paid now, while a long term position is worth deferring. The deferred tax falls due on 30 April of the year following the actual sale, and our Mississauga team tracks that date for clients who have already left.
