我今日回国，至少呆个一年半载，今年底12月31日肯定不在加拿大。请问2008年初需要报07年的税吗（联邦和魁省的？） 另，如果我整个08年都留在了中国，而且在中国有收入的话，09年初又是否需要报08年的税呢？

还有什么注意事项吗？

请知情人明示，万分感谢。

For tax purposes, you can elect not to be resident and stop paying canadian taxes, during the period you are out of Canada. In your case, form today to Dec 2007, and the sebsquent years. You can download the form, sign it and mail to both Rev Cda and Rev QC. But, when you decide to come back you must inform both offices to become resident again.

Or, you can continue to file Canadian tax returns, including income you earn in China and taxes withheld. The tax treaty has been signed b/w these 2 cournties, so you will not be double taxed. If you like this way, it is better for you to find an accountant here to do your tax return annually, collect your tax assessments and corespond with gov'ts.

Good luck

depends what you have in canada in 07, 08,

wife, kids, medi card, bank account, house.......if you have few of these, technically you will have to file your returns like what upstairs told you. BUT you can still choose to screw the governments by not filing your tax return. some get away, some got caught, you have to make a decsion.
