It depends if your parents are considered as resident of Canada or non-resident of Canada for tax purposes.

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛1. In general if your parents live here in Canada most of the time and files Canadian tax return already, then it's simple, they just file tax return to report their global income including the rental income (with proper Form T776).

2. If your parents still live in China most of the time in their own home and just visiting you from time to time, they should be considered as non-resident of Canada for tax purposes. Even they may have residential ties in Canada, the tie breakers rules under the Canada-China tax treaty will likely treat them as resident of China. In this case it's more complicated so I strongly recommend you to consult with a tax professional. Here are my view: as non-resident of Canada earning rental income from a Canadian property, 25% of the gross rent should be withheld and submitted to CRA (see CRA link below). Your parents also have the option to make a tax election to be taxed on a net income basis, in this case 25% still need to be withheld and paid to CRA but your parents can file a tax return to calculate the net income and claim a refund from the CRA.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

    • Since your parents have residential tires with Canada,
      they'd be considered Canadian Residents for tax purpose. Thus they need to pay tax as other Canadians. For special case, even they claim they're non-residents for tax purpose, the rental income is still the taxable income because it's Canadian source income.
      • oops... residential ties
        • so their rental income will be counted as our income? +1
      • 这回答,真理解不了。
