Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I owe taxes but can’t pay in full?

If you owe taxes and cannot pay the full amount, you should still file your return and pay as much as you can. Contact the CRA to discuss your situation and explore options such as a payment plan or financial relief.

How can I file my tax return?

You can file your tax return electronically using Zenith Financial Advisors, or by mailing a paper return to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).

How do I determine my residency status for tax purposes?

The CRA determines your residency status based on various factors, including your residential ties to Canada, the purpose and duration of your stay abroad, and where your family and personal assets are located. You may need to provide evidence of your new residency in another country. Our expertly curated tax professionals can help running tax consultation with you and help you depart from Canada without any hesitation or worries.

What is an arrival return?

An arrival return is a tax return filed by individuals who become residents of Canada for tax purposes. It is used to report income earned up to the date of arrival and to settle any Canadian tax obligations. This return helps establish your tax residency status and ensures that your income is reported correctly.
