A non-resident landlord is anyone who owns rental property in Canada but lives outside the country for tax purposes. Even if you are a Canadian citizen, you are considered a non-resident if your primary residence is abroad.

Non-resident landlords must remit 25% of the gross monthly rent to the CRA unless an NR6 form is approved. After filing a Section 216 return, you may receive a refund if your actual expenses reduce your taxable income.

The NR6 allows you to remit tax on net rental income instead of gross rent. This improves cash flow and prevents over-withholding. We prepare, submit, and monitor your NR6 application each year.
