Hello,
I moved to Canada in April 2018 as a permanent resident from USA, where I had a full time job until March which turned into a part time job from April to December of 2018. I get that we only have to report foreign income we earned as a Canadian resident, but as for foreign taxes paid - how do i determine the amount of taxes paid on the income from April to December as the W-2 states the taxes paid for the entire year? Do I have to pro-rate the taxes paid based on the % of total 2018 income that I earned from April-December ?
Thank you,
Teja.
