OBA Taxation Law / Citizenship and Immigration Law PROGRAM | Original Program Date: March 27, 2019
Immigration strategies and tax implications for both businesses and individuals can be at odds with each other. What do immigration lawyers need to understand about what it means to be an ordinary resident, deemed resident, or dual resident for tax purposes in Canada? What do tax lawyers need to understand about skilled workers, different types of work permits, and business structures when advising clients on tax law implications? Join us to network with, and learn from, tax lawyers and immigration lawyers to bolster your client service. Explore how immigration requirements can sync or conflict with tax advantages, and look at ways to advise cross-border clients to navigate through both of these two systems.
Our experts will lead discussions on immigration and tax law topics, including:
- Concepts of residency for immigration and tax law purposes
- Common immigration structures for businesses and entrepreneurs, their tax implications and solutions
- Commonly encountered tax and individual immigration law issues and solutions
- How to advise clients when we see potential issues that conflict with our advice
