Tax returns

[gd]

Hi experts,

As a PR holder who did the first landing in August 2009 and returned after two weeks to a place where currently employed at (out of Canada), is it compulsory for me to file Canadian tax returns?

Hello,

In general, you only need to declare world wide income if you have residential ties to Canada. You can find out more here: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/nnrsdnts/ndvdls/nwcmr-eng.html#b.
