如果你的主要收入来源都在美国,而没有在加拿大的收入。根据tax treaty, you can elect to be US resident instead of Canada resident, then you don't need to file tax return in Canada. All you need to keep is US tax return in case Canada Revenue Agency chases after you.

To elect to be US resident does not require that you cut down all your canada social ties. The test for electing to be US resident only mainly depends on where your financial resources come from and how many days you stay in States and Canada. Even you have spouse and kids in Canada, no problem. I forgot the treaty item no., but you can find a tax professional and ask them to find for you. But this treaty is there!

回复: 在美国发工资,在加拿大交税吗?
楼上的误解我的意思了。当然canada social tie只和加拿大tax resident有关。不过问题在于一个美国tax resident不必然是加拿大的non tax resident。如果同时是两个国家的tax resident的话需要向加拿大缴纳高于美国税部分的加拿大税。
