Hello,

I just finished my landing procedures. Since I have to file my tax return next Apr 30th, I got some pertinent questions:

  1. My husband would still be working in dubai until he gets some job in Canada. So we are aware of global tax on income. So what will be my husbands residency status in that case…is it non resident, factual resident, PR, deemed resident? If at all he is taxed on his income like any other resident canadian , are we eligible for pension plan scheme? do we enjoy all the benefits of paying tax as a normal canadian inspite of working outside canada? Awaiting your reply asap. thanks and regards
