Hi guys, thanks for your helpful input.
To BL.TAX:
In your posts, you mentioned "I can't see too much benefits for you to file US return jointly. If you pay a little of tax in Canada, your FTC will be a little, even less, acoordingly. Why do you like to report your income in US?"
I am a little confused. In fact, you discussed if we should file as resident or non-resident (not jointly or separately), right?
(15000-4000-5000-3200)*15%=420, not 300
In (25760-3049-5000-3200-7300)*(15%-10%)=350, what are 7300 and 10%?
Another question:
Why did nobody mention child tax credit? If file as resident, we can claim child tax crdit, which will reduce $1000 directly from our tax, right?
To booooooooks:
You mentioned "你加拿大的income earned druing non-resident period,不用报给美国。也就是说你的收入如果是去美国之前挣的,就不用报给美国。只报去美国之后的那部分。因为first year choice只是part-year resident。"
Where can I find 原文 of the above?
If so, I guess I can't get the total amount of the deduction $5000 and exemption $3200. Probably, only part of them. |
