U.S. persons (U.S. citizens or green card holders) living in Canada or abroad who have investments outside the U.S. should be aware of the potentially onerous tax filing requirements imposed by the IRS, and how those rules will apply to their investments. IRS rules can be particularly complex when investments in foreign companies or funds earning passive income are involved.

Sales and Transfers of Farm Land: Be Careful with the Details
When a farmer decides it is time either to sell farm land or to transfer it to a child, the <em>Income Tax Act</em> can be a powerful ally. Sheltering a sale of farm land by using the capital gains exemption or the inter-generational rollover of farm land to a child can help the taxpayer move the land on a tax-deferred or tax-free basis. It is important, however, to be aware of all the rules associated with these strategies, as small details within the <em>Income Tax Act</em> can cause undesired consequences.
