Forex Canadian Tax Return

Hello I live in Vancouver, British Columbia. I am curious to know what form I have to fill out to claim my $1000 loss. Furthermore, if I were to open a partnership with my wife, what would be the benefits/negative? Or should I just open a proprietorship? I also have a regular full time job.

Thanks,

I believe I answered your same question on the first thread up top. Here is a copy.

If you are a non-resident alien of the US - sounds like you are - then you may not owe US taxes, as it doesn't sound like you have US source income from trading forex with a US-based forex broker.

Learn more here http://www.greencompany.com/Educatio...Resident.shtml.

Forming a US-based entity may trigger US source income, so that may not be a good idea.

Consider a consultation for more indepth review of your issues if any.

We can not comment on Canadian taxation and rules.

Unhappy Needs Suggestion

Is there anyone here who can suggest where to look for information on tax guide for Canadian traders? I tried looking online but there's nothing really for Canadian traders.

international tax question

It depends if your forex trading is US income (or loss) or not. That depends on many factors. You need a consultation with us for that. http://www.greencompany.com/Traders/...nsulting.shtml

Arrow Forex managed funds

Hi,
I was wondering what is your idea about taxation on earnings from Forex managed funds. Are they in the same category?
I am a Canadian resident and don't pay US tax on Forex. Thank you.
