FORM 3520 California & Florida

TFSA & RRSP

U.S. tax treatment of Canadian registered accounts, and the reporting obligations they can create.

Common question

Is a TFSA actually tax-free for U.S. persons?

No — this is one of the most common and costly misunderstandings for U.S. persons living in Canada. A TFSA has no special status under U.S. tax law, and its income is generally taxable in the U.S. each year, with reporting requirements that can be significant.
