  Non-residents, immigrants and emigrants |
If your client was not a resident of Canada during the year, and they were not an immigrant to or an emigrant from Canada during the year, they are a Resident-Type .
Generally, you were a non-resident of Canada in 2025 if you normally, customarily, or routinely lived in another country and were not considered a resident of Canada for tax purposes.
You were a non-resident of Canada for tax purposes in 2025 if you did not have residential ties in Canada and: - you lived outside Canada throughout the year (except if you were a deemed resident); or
- you stayed in Canada for less than 183 days in the year.
DT Max will know that no personal exemptions can be claimed for this person and none will be granted.
You were a deemed resident of Canada for tax purposes in 2025 if you did not have residential ties in Canada (otherwise a non-resident, as defined above), but you temporarily stayed here for 183 days or more in 2025 and, under a tax treaty, you were not considered a resident of another country.
You were a deemed non-resident of Canada in 2025 if you were a resident of Canada in 2025, and, under a tax treaty, you were considered to be a resident of another country. If this is the case, the same rules apply to you as to a non-resident
If your client is a deemed non-resident, he has to pay the 48% surtax instead of tax to a provincial jurisdiction. The entry in his Prov-Residence keyword should designate him as a deemed resident.

The following options are applicable for the keyword Resident-Type.
Non-resident Method 1 - Non-resident tax
Canadian financial institutions and other payers have to withhold non-resident tax at a rate of 25% on certain types of Canadian-source income that they pay or credit you as a non-resident of Canada. The most common types of income that could be subject to non-resident tax include: - interest and dividends
- rental payments
- pension payments
- Old Age Security pension
- Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan benefits
- retiring allowances
- registered retirement savings plan payments
- registered retirement income fund payments
- annuity payments
However, if there is a tax treaty between Canada and your country of residence, the terms of the treaty may reduce the rate of non-resident tax withheld on certain types of income.
If, in 2025, non-resident tax was withheld on any of the types of income listed above, you do not have to report the income or tax withheld on your Canadian return. In general, the non-resident tax withheld is your final tax obligation to Canada on this income.
However, if you receive rental income, certain pension payments, or film and video acting services income, you can choose to report these types of income on a Canadian return and pay tax on it using an alternative taxing method.
If you receive Old Age Security pension, you may have to file the Old Age Security Return of Income each year.
Method 2 - Tax on taxable income
Certain types of income you earn in Canada must be reported on a Canadian income tax return. The most common types of income include: - income from employment in Canada;
- income from a business carried on in Canada;
- Canadian scholarships, fellowships, bursaries, and research grants; and
- capital gains from disposing of taxable Canadian property.
You may be entitled to claim certain deductions from income to arrive at the taxable amount. You can also claim a credit for any tax withheld at source or paid on this income.
If there is a tax treaty between Canada and your country of residence, the terms of the treaty may reduce or eliminate the tax on certain types of this income. By completing the return, you determine whether you are entitled to a refund of some or all of the tax withheld, or you have a balance of tax owing for the year.

Non-resident - section 116 (only disp. of Can. property)
Non-resident electing under section 216 As a non-resident, you may have received the following types of income in 2025: - rental income from real property in Canada; or
- timber royalties on a timber resource property or a timber limit in Canada.
If so, you can choose to send us a separate return to report this income for the year. Choosing to send this return is called "electing under section 216 of the Income Tax Act." This allows you to pay tax on your net Canadian-source rental or timber royalty income instead of on the gross amount. If the non-resident tax withheld on this income is more than the amount you have to pay under section 216, excess will be refunded to you.
Non-resident electing under section 217 What is a section 217 election? Canadian payers have to withhold non-resident tax on certain types of income, including the types of income listed below, that they paid or credited to you as a non-resident of Canada. The tax withheld is usually your final tax obligation to Canada on this income.
Under section 217 of the Income Tax Act, you can choose to file a Canadian return and report the types of Canadian source income. By doing this, you will pay tax on this income using an alternative taxing method and may receive a refund of some or all of the non-resident tax withheld.
Does section 217 apply to you? You have to send a section 217 return for 2025 if you submitted Form NR5 "Application by a Non-Resident of Canada for a Reduction in the Amount of Non-Resident Tax Required to be Withheld" for 2025 and it has been approved by the government.
You have the option of sending a section 217 return for 2025 if you did not submit Form NR5 for 2025 and you received any of the following types of Canadian-source income in 2025 while you were a non-resident: - Old Age Security pension
- Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan benefits
- most superannuation and pension benefits
- registered retirement savings plan payments
- registered retirement income fund payments
- death benefits
- Employment Insurance benefits
- certain retiring allowances
- registered supplementary unemployment benefit plan payments
- deferred profit-sharing plan payments
- amounts received from a retirement compensation arrangement, or the purchase price of an interest in a retirement compensation arrangement
- prescribed benefits under a government assistance program
