Hello, this is Gary from Pension-income-splitting.com.

Did you know that if you are  eligible you can save thousands of dollars through pension income splitting?  This would  lower your taxes payable and  increase your tax credits which could result in a significant tax  refund.  We  have  saved clients over $8000  in taxes by pension income  splitting..

Any Canadian resident with eligible pension income can allocate up to 50% of eligible  pension income to their spouse.

Many people ask.  What  is  eligible  pension income?  This  is  not a  simple answer  for  example  this  does not  include  CPP or  OAS. It  does include company pensions  plans  and  registered retirement plans.

The calculation to  determine  how  much  to  allocate  to the  spouse is  complex.  We  can assist you in this  area  and  calculate the  most beneficial amount so you pay the  minimum amount of  tax  and  receive  the  biggest  refund  possible.

Not only do  we  specialise in  pension income  splitting but  we  also specialise in all types  of  personal  tax returns so  that  you  pay the  minimum amount  of  tax  according to the  tax  rules.

We  offer  many tax  return  services  all at   very  affordable   rates.

We  can  prepare the   current  year  returns

2.  past year  returns 

3. and  review your prior  returns  to  ensure  that you received  the  maximum refund  allowable.

Please contact us at  416-626-2727 or  email us at  seniors@garybooth.com. Even though we  specialise in seniors  tax  returns we  do  tax  returns  for  everyone. We look forward to hearing from you so that we  can help you  minimize your taxes.

What is an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number?
- It is a number issued by the Internal Revenue Service to facilitate tax processing. It is a nine-digit number that always begins with the number 9 and has a range between 70 and 88 in the fourth and fifth digit, example 9XX-70-XXXX.

It is a number issued to individuals who are required to have a US taxpayer identification number but who is not eligible to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN) from Social Security Administration (SSA). ITINs are issued regardless of immigration status because both resident and nonresident aliens may have a U.S. filing or reporting requirement under the Internal Revenue Code.

Individuals must have a filing requirement and file a valid federal income tax return to receive an ITIN, unless they meet an exception.

Who needs an ITIN number?
An individual needs an ITIN number if he/she has any of the following circumstances:
- Have income that is reported to the IRS
- You are claimed as a dependent on someone’s Federal
..Income Tax Return
- If you want to open a bank account/stock account
- If you want to obtain a Driving Licence from Department of Motor Vehicles
- If you have rental properties in the US

Advantages of getting an ITIN
- You can qualify for a refund for money that has been taken out of your paycheck for income taxes. This depends on your income, the amount that was withheld from your paycheck and the number of dependents you are claiming.

- Filing your taxes can help you apply for residency in the future. The IRS wants individuals to file their taxes, regardless of their immigration status, so they do not share information about people who have an ITIN with the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services.

- Some financial institutions accept the ITIN to open bank accounts that pay interest and to apply for loans. Many people use an ITIN to establish their credit history and apply for loans to buy a car or house.

- Even if you didn’t file your taxes in the past, you may qualify for a refund for three previous years once you receive your ITIN. Call us for more details in this


Who has to file an US tax return?
- If you are a US citizen, you are required to file a US Income Tax Return regardless of where you live or your income level.

- If you own a US property that is rented at any time during the year, you must report this amount on a US Return.

- If you dispose of a US property, a US return needs to be filed

- If you sell services or products to the US, there may be a requirement to file a US Return.

There may be various other situations in which an individual must file a US tax return. In many cases, besides filing a Federal return, you would need to file State returns. We also help you preparing tax returns for every state. We have been providing services to clients in preparing their US filing requirements for many years. Our team consists of professional accountants with years of experience.


I would like your firm to apply for an ITIN for myself or my family. How do I proceed?
a. Download latest version of Form W7. The form can be obtained by visiting the following internet link http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw7.pdf

b. Complete form W7 to the best of your ability. Please be sure that the data you enter is as accurate as possible. The form can be completed by hand or it can be typed.

c. Complete personal information form. Click here for PDF of form

d. Payment - please include a cheque or complete the credit card information on the personal information form to cover the fees of the ITIN application. Please make your cheque out to Gary Booth CA Prof. Corp. Post-dated cheques are not acceptable.

e. Once all of your documentation has been gathered - please courier the following at our address:
- Completed Form W7
- Completed Personal Information Form
- Payment information

- ORIGINAL Passport OR ORIGINAL Foreign birth record and one of the following (in ORIGINAL), which must bear a photograph, and has not expired:
· Drivers license
· Identity Card
· Voters Registration Card
· School records
· Medical Records
· Marriage record
· Military registration card; and Copy of the US Tax return (if applicable) or documents to be sent along with the application

- Copy of the US tax return or the supporting authenticated documentation which states why you need an ITIN number, to be sent along.

All original documents will be couriered back to you within a day. Alternatively, you may want to visit our office with these documents.


Why should I file my taxes with an ITIN?
- Filing taxes can help with immigration applications by showing that you have been in the U.S. for a continuous period of time and that you have good moral character.

- It’s required by U.S. tax law.

- You may get a tax refund if extra money was withheld or taken out of your paycheck.

- You may be able to claim the Child Tax Credit.

- You will have a record of your employment and wages earned that could help you when applying for a loan or credit.


What do I have to do differently if I have an ITIN?
If you are reporting wages that you earned, you should include the Social Security number listed on the W-2 or 1099 forms you received when you complete the section on wages in your tax return. The IRS e-file system can now accept returns that include an ITIN and a Social Security Number for wages earned. The person who has the ITIN will receive credit for the income.

Do I need an ITIN?
IRS issues ITINs to foreign nationals and others who have federal tax reporting or filing requirements and do not qualify for SSNs. A non-resident alien individual not eligible for a SSN who is required to file a U.S. tax return only to claim a refund of tax under the provisions of a U.S. tax treaty needs an ITIN.

Other examples of individuals who need ITINs include:
• A nonresident alien required to file a U.S. tax return
• A U.S. resident alien (based on days present in the United States) filing a U.S. tax return
• A dependent or spouse of a U.S. citizen/resident alien
• A dependent or spouse of a nonresident alien visa holder

How do I know if I need an ITIN?
If you do not have a SSN and are not eligible to obtain a SSN, but you have a requirement to furnish a federal tax identification number or file a federal income tax return, you must apply for an ITIN. If you have an application for a SSN pending, do not file Form W-7. Complete Form W-7 only if the Social Security Administration (SSA) notifies you that a SSN cannot be issued.

To obtain a SSN, see Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card. To get Form SS-5 or to find out if you are eligible to obtain a SSN, go to Social Security Administration Website or contact a SSA office. By law, an alien individual cannot have both an ITIN and a SSN. IRS processes returns showing SSNs or ITINs in the blanks where tax forms request SSNs. IRS no longer accepts, and will not process, forms showing "SSA205c," "applied for," "NRA," blanks, etc.

When should I apply for an ITIN?
You should complete Form W-7 as soon as you are ready to file your federal income tax return, since you need to attach the return to your application.If you meet one of the exceptions to the tax filing requirement, submit Form W-7, along with the documents that prove your identity and foreign status and the required supplemental documents to substantiate your qualification for the exception, as soon as possible after you determine that you are covered by that exception. You can apply for an ITIN any time during the year; however, if the tax return you attach to Form W-7 is filed after the return's due date, you may owe interest and/or penalties. You should file your current year return by the prescribed due date to avoid this.
