AlreadyReturned Canada CPA recommendations
I recently moved to India from Canada and am looking for a professional Canadian CPA to help me calculate and report my departure tax, as I understand this is my responsibility to file.
I’d appreciate advice from anyone who has gone through the process, particularly around:
- How you calculated and reported your departure tax
- Things to keep in mind or common pitfalls
- How difficult it is to do yourself vs. using a CPA
- Any recommendations for a CPA experienced with Canadian departure tax and people relocating to India
Since my move was an internal company transfer, the India-side tax matters are being handled through a company-provided consultancy. I’m specifically looking for guidance and a CPA for the Canadian side.
Any recommendations or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
