Thank you for choosing TurboTax,

As per CRA, electing under section 216 allows you to pay tax on your net Canadian-source rental income instead of on the gross amount. If the non-resident tax the payer withheld is more than the amount of tax payable on your section 216 return, the CRA will refund the excess to you.
