good luck,  they will ask if u worked outside of canada or not, what did u do during the year, how the hell did u survive without a job, tons of bs questions.  their final goal is to have u pay taxes.  So if u tell them u worked outside of canada, they will probably put u in a room and start question u until u declare how much u made and how much tax u will pay.

If you haven't come back for 2 years, you're non-resident already if you don't have any dependent, real estate property, bank account, care card here. You don't really have to declare it under the tax ...

i havn't declare non-resident yet....  and still have bank account in canada...  so does that means i gotta pay income tax in canada?  if thats the case, whats the best way to avoid that?  no way in hell i'm paying income tax in canada when i dont even live there, the only reason i go back to hk is to avoid the stupid high tax.  if i gotta pay then over 200k of my income will end up in the government of canada... no way
and HK only wants about 50-60k with pretty good tax return this year!

Just tell the truth and don't hide anything.  Nothing to be scared/worried about if you tell the truth.

yea, do u really wanna tell them that u earn half a million last year and u are willing to give 50 something percent tax back to the government?

lol rich but never consult an accountant...

i already speaked with my accountant... i had no idea what she was talking about actually.  all i understand was that she told me is that if i keep the money in my company's acct then canadian government cant tax me since its my company's income and not my personal income.  anyways, i'm just gonna leave everything to them now.  since its getting too complicated.

Yes you have to if you are still a Canadian and still live in Canada. And if you have half a million, 1 you cannot travel with that much cash. 2 you have enough $ to hire a good accountant to do your ...

well, i'm canadian but i don't live in canada.  only come back to visit.  so thats different right?
i'm not talking about bringing half a million cash, but i'm talking about half a million of annual earnings out of the country.  those customs will ALWAYS ask if u have been working or not when you are out of the country.  if u declare your overseas income then you gotta pay canadian income tax.  i'm pretty sure when u have half a million earnings, you do NOT want to be in the income tax bracket in canada.  
if u are earning about 20k HKD a month, then u would be hardly paying any tax in canada anyways then thats fine to declare the income.  but when u are earning alot more then that, i dont think you would even want to consider declaring anything.
