As per my post above, here's a sample cover letter for your spouse should she/he be a "Factual Resident".  As per the CF member sample cover letter, remove all red font and italics and insert your spouse's info. Hope this helps.  If you need more info, PM me, but be aware that I don't login to...

As per my post above, included in this post is a sample cover letter for the CF member to include with his/her tax return.  The one for the spouse will follow in a different post. Replace all red font with your own font.  Remove the italics. If you don't have a spouse, just remove any...

Unless your wife is working in the States (which I don't know how to do since mine did not work down here; I'm still here right now in the States), you do NOT file anything with the US taxman. Nothing.  Nada.

Yes, I did, but I did not change the plate.  Also, I did not change the plate on my truck and car since I phoned the State Motor Vehicle Commission (some states have "Department of Motor Vehicles" vice a "Motor Vehicle Commission") HQ where I spoke to a guy who also happens to be a National...

That is not entirely true, the part about spouses being "Deemed Residents".  See my large post in this thread.

I was explicitly told by the CRA International Tax Office NOT to complete one of these.  Check out my big post in this thread for Deemed, Factual, etc. residency.

I'm OUTCAN right now in the States.  Here's the deal with taxes: 1. If you are Deemed or Factual (see below for explanations), do NOT file electronically.  The tax returns for EVERYBODY (spouse and CF mbr, while OUTCAN) get MAILED to: International and Ottawa Tax Services Office Canada Revenue...

I suggest you do more reading on the Recruiting website in regards to what positions people with your types of degrees (still to be achieved I take from your post) can do.  There are occupations that are some sort of engineer in the Army, Air Force, and Navy.  I don't know if you know the...

First off, as an AERE, let me correct the person who put AERE in the "Support Trade" thread.  AERE is NOT a support trade.  In fact, AERE is operational.  I am an AERE and last time I checked the helicopters at the last two units that I was at didn't fix themselves or the pilots didn't fix...

As the primary charge is drunkenness, you see where the main focus is.  As well, I'm not sure if you know this, but you don't have to actually be drunk to have this charge brought against you.  All that needs to happen is alcohol + an incident = possible charge and most likely a conviction.  I...

Inuit uprising?  :christmas happy: Colin P, I'm an Aerospace Engineer (AERE) that worked in the Chinook program.  In case you don't know what an AERE is, we're the guys that tell the pilots, "No helicopter for you!".  But seriously, the Officer Commanding Maintenance Flight at a Squadron is...

1. If you are bypassed on the merit list, you SHALL be promoted NLT 1 Dec of that same year, even if the actual ceremony occurs after 1 Dec (as was what happened in my case).  This is the date that you will get money from, even if back pay is necessary (as was the case for me).  This is your...

Anybody know someone in the Niagara Region that is missing their CD?  As well, the NATO "medal" doesn't appear to have a ribbon.  Anybody know what operation it was for? I'm a little surprised that the Niagara Regional Police just don't look on the edge of the CD in order to get the rank...

It's interesting to try to watch the refugee discussion that is ongoing in Canada while being posted OUTCAN.  FYI, here's what it is like in the States: -huge ongoing discussion about bringing 10,000 (yes, only 10,000) Syrian refugees to the States; -there's no deadline to get them here...

So, let me get this straight?  We're apparently "discussing" this and when I discuss it, the main focus of some people here is to state, "let's not forget that we need to determine IF this actually happened"?  Really, I thought that we were discussing this, I didn't realize that this was a...

So I was told that this is a discussion by a poster.  So let's discuss: 1. It is not the responsibility of the spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend/etc of a CAF member to speak up at a gathering that involves CAF members, family, public, etc.  You can discuss this all you want, but I invite you to see...

Bruce, your time served in the CAF is certainly valued and appreciated.  As well, you are most certainly entitled to your opinion, but times have changed since you were in.  Whether good or bad, that is your choice to comment on, but at the end of the day the direction from the Chief of Defence...

So, as a Senior Officer, I'll make some things clear here: 1. It is not the responsibility of the spouse/girlfriend/etc. to "make her presence" known.  It is not the responsibility of a spouse, etc. to "have a thick skin" when she/he is subjected to inappropriate comments.  Times have changed. ...
