First tax return – Date of entry

[anil.sharma]

Hello everyone,
I wanted to confirm one tax question, I answered in my first return.
I permanently moved to Canada last year 2020 in October. I did soft landing in 2019 stayed here for less than a week and went back to home country. ( Only got SIN number at than time )
After I moved permanently last year, opened bank account, got health card etc.
So while filing for my tax return, there was a question did you become resident of canada for tax purposes in 2020 ?
I answered yes ( as I establish significant ties only after I moved last year )
another question was Date of entry
I answered Oct 2020
Did I answered the questions correctly ?
Thanks

From my research, I'd say "yes". I plan to do the same - soft landing, and after a delay, return to Canada as part of our official move.

Yes to both, no need to worry.
