    TS_123 got a reaction from Marzena & Stephen in Advice on TFSA & RRSP before moving to US   
    If you kept your currency in CAD then you do not. If you converted some money to USD and the ex rate at the date you depart is lower, you have realized a capital gain hence you will pay a departure tax on it.

    Thank you all for your insight.
     
    Applied for the US passports or my kids and thankfully, they said they should be ready for pick up before I fly out end of month.  Didn't even have to pay the $60*2 expedite fee for both passports as they said there should be enough time to produce the passport.  Whew...thanks again everyone!

    TS_123 got a reaction from acidrain in Proving domicile when not living in the U.S.   
    And the 21st was today :). Happy to say I was approved!  Wife (US Citizen/Sponsor), the kids and myself are here in Canada and we were able to prove our intent to establish domicile with the following evidence:
     
    -Real Estate contract to buy new home in the US along with in-progress pics of our home being built
    -Emails between myself and our builder in terms of the progress and closing date
    -Wire transfers to builder for home upgrades
    -receipt of housing inspection
    -Real Estate sales contract of our home in Canada proving our house has been sold and will be closing end of December
    -Business LLC set up along with business account with BOA
     
    That's pretty much it!  The person who interviewed was super friendly and a pleasure to deal with.
     
    Any questions, let me know.
