Understanding Taxes for Expatriate Canadians
CanDiego
Professional Event
September
24, 2008
As Canadians living
in the US, we all know life, death and expatriate taxes are things we
can't avoid! That being the case, why not be better prepared for the inevitable
as April is going to roll around sooner than you think! CanDiego will
be holding a seminar for our members on the expatriate tax process this
Fall so you can plan for your 2008 taxes. The following topics will be
discussed during the two hour seminar:
- Canadian and US
residency for tax purposes
- Tax filing requirements
for expatriates in California from Canada
- Tax planning for
Canadians in California
- Ownership of property
and investments in Canada as a non-resident and the filing requirements
involved
- Changes to the
Canada/US tax treaty
- Questions and Answer

fix and bonding with Canadians as well as friends of Canada, please come

Understanding
American Healthcare
Professional Event
Tentative - Pending Speakers
Confused about the
American healthcare system? Our Canadian provincial health cards just
don't have any meaning down here. CanDiego would like to hold a seminar
to assist patients in navigating through the finer points of the US healthcare
system. We are asking for speakers from the community and the health care
field to provide information for us as we all need medical care at some
point in our lives. If you have any contacts that may be able to help,
please notify teena@candiego.org.
