Don't declare it at all. Deal with it all when you get back. Definitely don't tell your other financial institutions.
The only ones you have to tell are your provincial government for health card reasons. You can declare non-residency (and that you're a resident again) when you get back and file tax returns retroactively (since you wont owe any). |
LISTEN TO THIS MAN!
It's way easier. And if you are abroad for 2 1/2 years it automatically gets changed to non-residency status, (as long as your student loan is your only debt, and you have no other investments). |

It shouldn't be a problem. I don't know why PC is such an obnoxious pain. I've been with RBC for years and have sent money home every month and use a credit card with both them and TD Bank. Call them up and see if they'll let you open an account. You're still a citizen. I do know RBC restricts investment accounts if you're a non resident but TD Bank doesn't. Other option is to transfer to your parents account and get them to pay student loans. Being with no CC sucks though. Next year when you go home for a visit, make sure you open that account with someone else. Paying on your student loans will show up on your credit report so hopefully you'll be able to apply for a CC again. |
