Dividend Question


BRK IN MKE

Recommended Posts

 

Speaking of receiving dividend withholding for owners of Canadian stocks based in the U.S., does anyone have details on this document?  I received a link from Schwab which discussed that I should fill out this form if I owned or planned on owning Canadian dividend payers. 

 

Has there been a change in the tax treaty between Canada and the United States?

 

TIA for anyone who has info.

Hi Kiltacular,

 

It is my understanding that the change will affect trusts, not individuals.  The withholding rate will be 25% vs the old 15% unless this form NR301 is filled out

prior to the 1st of the year.  I had to fill one out for a family trust.  I am not sure how it affects non flow through trusts or corporations.
