I am a Canadian resident who made US income, and contributed to a 401k. I know I must include my 401k contributions on my foreign income, but what about my employer's contributions?

Also, what are the ways that I can get these amounts deducted from my Canadian income tax? I have plenty of RRSP contributions left to make.

Canadian residents working in the US and contributing to a 401(k) do need to include their own 401(k) contributions in their reported income. However, since 2009 they can deduct those contributions on line 209(?). A treaty revison made this possible.

  • Welcome to Personal Finance & Money. Your answer addresses the half of the question about employee contributions; can you also address the issue of employer contributions?
