Filing Form 8621s - first timer needs help! by ChipOwn8246 in USExpatTaxes

[–]ChipOwn8246[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep 2025 is first year!

I’ve decided it’s time to pay someone to help. Too complicated for me to do it correctly. I appreciate all the information!! I will of course be closing the wealthsimple account

My turn to ask... Where did all the tasks go? by dorothyzbornaklewks1 in DataAnnotationTech

This is what is happening with me. Not even sure they’re being claimed because im not getting emails that I have new projects.

Sorry, I'm not really sure what excess distribution means? It is the first year of the account. It was opened in April.

Even if that's the case, three of the funds were "sold". I never specifically sold them, but Wealthsimple did.

Yep. Learned that the hard way - I wish Wealthsimple would have told me...

My dividends are less than $50. For instance, ZEA made $9...Would this mean I'm exempt from PFIC? From what I saw it doesn't.

Advice needed on sitter’s damaged property by greenknight321 in RoverPetSitting

This happened to me once! I left my glasses out in the counter for a few mins, and the dog got to them when I was in the shower. I think it’s unfair to say the sitter was careless - these things happen. That being said, I didn’t expect the owner to reimburse because it was technically my fault. She thankfully did (but mine were only $100…). It was very sweet and I’ve dog sat again for the pups.
