If my husband has been deployed overseas since early December, that is not the same as “living in separate provinces” right ?

Yes, it's  not same as living in separate province. Did he live in the same province for the most of the year 2024 ? Since you mentioned he was deployed since early December? If that's the case you can use the same address for him.

General rule:

  • File your tax return based on your province of residence as of December 31

Exceptions for temporary relocations:

  • If you've temporarily moved to another province, you may still be considered a resident of your home province
  • This often applies to:
    • Temporary job assignments
    • Students studying in another province

How to determine your province of residence:

  1. Consider your residential ties
  2. Select the province where you have the most significant connections
