Investment / taxes for a Canadian living in Japan
Through inheritance I will come into a fair bit of money that is in mutual funds, stock investments and savings. All at the Royal Bank of Canada.
Long ago I filed the papers with the Canadian consulate in Nagoya regarding taxes. I have Japanese PR and will mostly likely spend the rest of my life here. My wife is Japanese. No children.
The accountant currently in charge of the accounts suggested that I move all the savings to Japan.
We would prefer to leave the money in Canada as it will eventually go to my niece and nephew, but we have access to it until then.
Is this possible? if so, how?
