4 thoughts on “USAs to Move on US Persons in Canada”
I never hid…I filed my US Taxes and complied.. in 1993 I became a citizen of Canada.. I was told I no longer had to file. So after filing my US 1993 I never filed another USA tax form. Seeing this video reminded me when the USA IRS sent me an income tax refund one of those years I was filing, for over $2k…I sent it back after calling them….I never cashed it. I never worked in the USA after 1969..when I came up to Canada. It took them two years to send me a formal paper acknowledging that I owed nothing with no acknowledgment of the IRS mistake sending me the cheque.
I claim nothing from the USA , and want nothing. I am forever Canadian.
Dancing the US tango in Canada
I don’t think any of us were hiding. They simply had one type of arrangement they went by for decades and then decided to include high tax countries like Canada in a fine and fee penalty grab. It’s a lot of useless paperwork on zero tax owed. They knew that before and never made any effort to behave any differently themselves. There was zero out reach and zero worry over us before this.
I wasn’t hiding for the last 50 years, but I sure as hell am now!
If I could go back in time, I would renounce the day I turned 18. I wish I had known then that being born in the USA was not ‘special’ – it was a curse.
