What kind of tax resident am I in Canada if I am a tax resident in Portugal, but not a permanent resident yet?

Hi, thank you for using Intuit turbotax Live Community

Canada requires residents to file a tax return reporting their world wide income. The question what is a resident can be difficult to answer. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has information on determining your residency status:

To make things more complicated there are situations where CRA will determine a tax payer is a non resident of Canada on would therefore have different filing requirements from a resident of Canada.  Look at this link and Deemed non-resident:

Determining residency status for tax purposes is a complicated process. Hopefully after reviewing the information in the links above you can get an answer .

Hope this helps
