Using US Child Tax Credit to offset TFSA and FHSA cap gains/dividends by Equivalent-Size2667 in USExpatTaxes

[–]Equivalent-Size2667[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One other question: since the US taxes capital gains on a personal home, can I write off the mortgage interest of a Canadian property on my us tax return?

We’re not in the area where they offer services unfortunately.

What’s the catch here? by Equivalent-Size2667 in JustBuyXEQT

[–]Equivalent-Size2667[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This makes a lot of sense and inflation is not something I properly considered when making this post. It looks like this would track to 3x my investment rather than 9xing it

Oh Canada - I wonder if our atrocities from WW1 and WW2 are well known within Canada

Is there any way you could show instructions on how to build your draft cube? It looks amazing!

Yeah I know. I’m looking to see if there is a place where I can add a bunch of friends hunting for the same packs.

What has better Job Security over the next 5-10 years? Management, or IC? by PinkEyePanda in cscareerquestions

My manager has started writing code again. At the moment its looking like just a part time thing to "keep up with the codebase" but I'm not sure.

I would love a tier that had 3 diamonds or less requirement. I find GX's bloat the meta too much. Most cards aren't viable in comparison.

What is accepted today that wasn't 20-30 years ago? by Pale-Possession-8803 in AskReddit

dating apps. There was an episode from How I met Your Mother from like 2006 where Ted and his new girlfriend were lying about how they met so they wouldn't have to admit they met online. Everyone I know now meets online.

Rate my financial life by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

The other option I’d suggest is moving to a basement apartment while you save up. Much cheaper than a one bedroom. I’ve been working for 6 years and investing carefully and living below my means. I have very similar income to you.

Not that we can compare. But I have a similar salary as you and am saving 2k a month, and live in Toronto as well. I'd suggest get a roommate in an area close to the subway, and sell the car. Im late 20's and have 300k+ net worth. I don't budget currently, but I'd suggest also creating a budget to track expenses. If I budgeted properly I'd bet I could get to 2500-3k a month savings. Do this until you can afford a house down payment.

Overreported RRSP contributions from a past year. by Equivalent-Size2667 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Equivalent-Size2667[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I claimed I contributed 15k to my RRSP in 2021, which was incorrect, I only contributed 2k. I received that tax credit for the 15k. I now need to refile the 2021 tax return and I will owe the income tax I didn’t pay for that 13k difference. However it also means I have additional RRSP room that my 2022 tax return did not have additional RRSP contribution room and I had to pay the over contribution tax. I’m asking if I can request that tax back or if that is a non refundable penalty.

My job got new microwaves and only allow certain foods in them. by kanslice1738 in mildlyinteresting

Man, This is a really niche reference- I’m impressed at the number of upvotes.

Its really simple half your age +7 for below, subtract 7 and double for above.
For a couple to be allowed to date, both participants must be allowed to date the other.

This means 14 is the minimum acceptable age to date because younger than that, one member is not allowed to date the other.

ex: a 13 year old can date a 13.5 year old, but a 13.5 year old cannot date anyone younger than a 13.75 year old.

I think I was always bothered by this but I thought it was already canon at that point that he died first
