| UAE Expat returning to Canada |
I have been living in the UAE for 8 years now. I will be relocating back to Canada.
I hope I can transfer moderately large sum of money [around 200K CAD] to my bank in Canada. Are there any glitches in the process OR should I take traveler cheques worth that amount.
Would then there be difficulties while making a manual deposit of these cheques in my local Canadian account? I am not sure what are the rules?
Additionally, I THINK I have been a non-resident since I have did not visit Canada during the first 4 years of my stay here in the UAE. Afterwards, there have been up to max. of 7 week visits in 2007, 2009 and 2010.
My concerns are the following:
1] Should I keep my money in the UAE and sort out the TAX matters first in Canada? OR can I take the money there and then sort out the Tax matters there?
2] I heard that there is a TAX TREATY between the UAE and Canada. Will that treaty HELP me in the taxes and I could avoid DOUBLE TAXATION...
3] Should I hire a Tax Lawyer [Good one] to look into my case?
I am not sure what is the BEST scenario and hence NEED DESPERATE HELP!!!!!
Any advice would be truly appreciated. JIM |

| Offshore company formation for internet based business? |
Hello,
I am a canadian expat now working abroad in the engineering field. I have residency in Indonesia and the UAE. I also have bank accounts in Singapore, Dubai, and Canada. I am an entreprenuer at heart and i would love to start a new venture by setting up a web based business but i need some help and advice. I plan to generate income on a website advertising job postings, contingency recruitment fees for finding people work in my specialized field of engineering and maybe even contracting myself out independantly. I would ideally like to form a offshore IBC or LLC in a country with no tax, Zero required capital investment, one person ie (myself) to be director/shareholder and no requirement of local representation as well as being able to have the freedom of having my documents kepts anywhere in the world. I plan on moving back to Canada in the next year or two, as i am a bit of a nomad at the moment. I have no ties with Canada at the present time therefore i would not be subjected to taxation on worldwide income. But if i start generating income through my planned offshore business when i move back would i then have to fork over some of my earnings to the Canadian gov't? any tips on being able to avoid the taxman without getting into hot water? If anyone can recommend a country and business structure that is best suited for my plans i would really apprieciate it! Thanks
Cheers! |

If a Canadian Citizen living in Canada, were to form a New Zealand Company Formation, for example an International Online Internet Business, would taxes on that business have to be paid to only the New Zealand government or to the Canadian and New Zealand Governments? |

| Canadian company working for Isle of Man company |
I'm a Canadian and have incorporated myself. I have a contract opportunity to work for a company in Isle of Man. Though I'll be working and living in Ontario-Canada, and will be paid in CAD, the company I will do work for is not Canadian.
1. Does my corporation need to file with the Isle of Man government?
2. Does it matter based on how much I earn and the contract period?
3. What do I need to consider when I do my Canadian corporate tax filing?
4. As I'm paid by my own company, my personal tax filing is same as always, right?
Many thanks |

| New Zealand Web Business in Canada |
Hi there, I'm a New Zealand citizen on a student visa in Canada. I'm unable to work while on this visa, but want to make some income doing web design while i study in Canada. (my PR application is in progress). Firstly, If I start a Canadian Business while studying, it seems risky, though potentially legal, at least in BC. Or, I could register a New Zealand corporation and have web design services charged to the NZ company - and taxes paid in NZ? Would Canadian taxes need to be charged for an 'overseas' internet service?
Any advice? Thanks! kiwi |
