NR4

[Gn01]

Where do you claim NR4 income from interest from a foreign country on a domestic return?

Hi @Gn01, To declare this income in Canada, follow the procedure below:

1- On the left side menu on the "Interview tab", select "Interview setup".

2- On the right-hand side of the screen, check the box for "Immigrant, emigrant, non-resident taxpayer, you are a Canadian resident and your spouse immigrated to Canada in the year".  Also check the box for "Pension income, other income and split pension income (T4A, T4A(OAS), T4A(P), T4A-RCA, T4RSP, T4RIF, T1032" and click "Next" at the bottom of the page.

3- Return to the left side menu on the "Interview tab" and choose the item "Immigrant, emigrant, non-resident".

4- On the screen to your right, choose the line "You were a non-resident of Canada for all of 2020 and you are making an election under s. 217 of the Income Tax Act".

5- On the page that appears, enter the details of your situation.

6- Return to the left side menu on the "Interview tab" and select "T4A and pension income"

7- On the screen to your right, choose "T4A(OAS) - Old age security pension income" and enter the amounts in the corresponding fields.

The program will generate Schedule C, "Electing under Section 217 of the Income Tax Act".

Hi @Nawal,

I am a resident of Canada and I received an NR4 slip from my bank with the following information: income code (box 14) = 61, gross income (box 16) = $X, and an empty non-resident tax withheld (box 17). It also mentions a non-resident account number with my name and payer/agent identification number.

I am finding it hard to incorporate this information into my Ufile account. Could you please help me with that?

Thanks in advance.
