Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

If you are referring to becoming a non-resident for tax purposes, you can find some detailed information regarding this on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website in the Non-residents of Canada section.

Here is an excerpt,

You are a non-resident for tax purposes if you:

  • normally, customarily, or routinely live in another country and are not considered a resident of Canada; or
  • do not have significant residential ties in Canada; and
  • you live outside Canada throughout the tax year; or
  • you stay in Canada for less than 183 days in the tax year.


I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
