蒙城的留学生博士后访学者大概都能免掉省税，但是免不掉联邦税，实际上是可以做到的。

赵紫阳曾和加拿大政府签过一个协议，大致内容是所有在加的留学生博士后访学者都不用交税，所以，如果能找到这个协议的正式文件，我们大约每年能多3-7000加元的收入。

事关大家的切身利益，请各位朋友（特别是国内有上层关系的朋友）能发动各自的关系网，找到这个文件，造福大家，造福后来者。

多谢了。

学生的联邦税是可以免的
访问学者的联邦税还要想想办法
博士后们的联邦税要看老板了

有了详细情报再讨论

希望对广大同胞有用。
可能有用的款项如下：
Article 19

If you are a visiting scholar...
Almost the same as landed immigrant if you have been in Canada over consecutive 183 days in the past calander year.  

If you are a visa student...
You can benefit from the tax treaty between Chinese and Canadian governments. This treaty (Article 19), co-signed by Brian Mulroney and Zhao Ziyang in Beijing, 1986, defines that you will be be taxed in canada of your income from research grants, fellowships, bursuries. However, your income from a teaching assistant position will be taxed.
For all the deducted portion due to this treaty benefit, they will not be counted for any RRSP contributions.
***If you are applying for immigration to Canada while as a visa student...
If you are a visa student in a taxation year, while you are also applying for immigration to Canada, you shold split up the income (from canadian sources) into two parts: the part before you submit your application form for canadian immigration, and the part after the date of submission. The first part remains to be exempted from taxation protected by the Canada-China Income Tax Treaty and can be taken off as "Deductions" in the line 257. However, the partion after the date of submission of your application form for immigration to canada, is subject to regular taxation rules and is no longer protected by the treaty, because of your visible intention of NOT leaving Canada after your training/schools, specified by the Article 19 of the tax treay.

Hi! ycy. u r really professional. Thank u!

Perhaps, I can deducte my bursary (postdoc, Chinese citizen, no intension to immigrate, the name of my income is "Bourse Etudes" in French in Form T4A). But I find there is no special line for this item. There are 2 line for "other deductions":
line 232: Other deduction
line 256: Additional deduction

Do u have any idea about which line should I fill in my bursary?

Is it necessary to have an additional piece of paper to explain that this duduction is according to the tax treaty between Chinese and Canadian governments(Article 19) co-signed by Brian Mulroney and Zhao Ziyang in Beijing in 1986 ?

Thank u in advance!

有没有博士后自己成功申请免联邦税的，可否告之大致步骤？

多谢

怎么搞的这么复杂？因为中国和加拿大有tax exempt treaty，所以在加的访问学者都是deemed non-resident，不管你住了多少天，都不必报联邦税的！但是也不会退消费税！

至于魁省，正因为联邦免税，所以魁省才免的！但是要报魁省的税也就是要(file tax return)只要填上相应的deduction即可！别忘了附上大使馆写你写的合同，证明你是在为中国工作。


博士后嘛，俺就不懂了。那算是为谁工作？俺只是个accounting本科，博士后离俺太遥远，那是个什么东西都不知道！嘻嘻

在加拿大报税在基于你的status上的。status有以下几种：resident, part year resident（一般是新移民）, deemed resident, non-resident and deemed non-resident。

183-day rule只适用于deemed resident，不适用于访问学者。

再有那个treaty只能两个国家之间签的。所以不太可能省里有减免，而国家没有减免。而且原文有什么好看，你只要知道中国和加拿大之间有tax exempt treaty就好了。访问学者的情况属于treaty，当然可以免！
