Generally, you can only claim moving expenses for moves within Canada unless you are a deemed or factual resident of Canada. An exception to this would be if you are a full time student, in which case you can claim eligible moving expenses against the taxable portion of scholarship, fellowship, bursary, prize and research grant income.
