  1. Disposed of rental property and previously claimed capital cost allowance on a section 216 As a result of the sale, a recapture of the CCA occurred.

Expectations by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)

The non-resident must withhold and remit non-resident tax at a rate of 25% of either the gross rental income amount (if no NR6 is prepared) or the net rental income amount (if an NR6 is approved by CRA).

The payer of the non-resident tax, which may be the tenant or property manager, must make the payment to CRA on or before the 15th day of the month following the month the rental income was paid.

  • i.e. for rental income earned in January, the tax must be remitted to CRA no later than February 15th.
