    About tax exemption for postdoc in Canada
    Hi, I am a Chinese Citizen and working in McMaster University in Ontario Canada as postdoc fellow. The salary is around 35000$/year.
    I am wondering if I am eligible for any tax exemption program.:confused:
    Some one on a Chinese forum said it is possible while others thought not.
    I cannot find useful information from the university and revenue agency's webset.:mad:
    Thanks for your answers in advance.:)

    Sorry, this is a forum concerned with US tax issues only.

    Why not call Canadian Revenue and ask them your question?
