Anyone conversant in Quebec Tax Law?

[ChanceSchmerr]

Looks like the military is moving me from the coast to Ottawa, I've been sentenced to at least 2 years in a job on the Quebec (Gatineau) side.

So i'm trying to figure out which side to live on, and I need to find someone to talk to who knows how the Quebec Tax laws work, particularly for someone with rental income from another province. 

Anyone who can help (or knows someone who can help me) with some advice, I would be very grateful!

Thanks in advance all!

I can ask someone I know who is a retired CRA Auditor.

@ChanceSchmerr Thanks for your service.  Likewise to all serving NATO and allied Friends here, current and vets.  My family and I are grateful 🙂

The only advice I can help you with, dear friend, is to 'brush up' on that French you learnt at school! 😉

Unfortunately can't help with tax law in Quebec...tabernac! But from my understanding Gatineau has better priced real estate / rentals so housing should be more affordable in comparison to Ottawa. You can take those savings and spend them at the excellent strip clubs in Montreal/Quebec!

Generally speaking your personal income tax rate (based on residency) would be higher in Quebec than Ontario.

So you're going from the coast to an inland city 500km away from the nearest access to the ocean? You're still in the navy, right? They haven't transferred you to the river boat ferry service or something like that?

Hi! I had a similar experience, although not exactly the same as yours. My wife and I had a baby and we decided to move to Canada because I had more business opportunities there. Also, our daughter was allergic to plants growing in the area where we used to live (ragweed). However, we didn't want to sell our house as we hoped to return there someday, so we decided to rent it out. I used paystub creator software to track this passive income and manage my savings. Fortunately, we had no problems with Canadian tax laws. I think you should consider that your tax rate will be higher, but I don't know by how much. Let me know if that was helpful.
