When you are new to Canada, you may not be used to how companies or the government does business. As a resident, you have rights and freedoms protected by Canadian law.

Below are some common scams aimed at newcomers to Canada. Read them so you know what to do if you are targeted.

People posing as Government of Canada staff
What happens: A person poses as a government official on the telephone. They call people and try to scare them by saying they have done something wrong (like not filing proper paperwork), and that they owe fees. They may say the person can lose their immigration status or be deported if they do not pay right away. These people may even threaten someone’s family or home.

Things to remember
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will never:

contact you over the telephone to collect fees or fines,
be aggressive or threaten to arrest or deport you,
threaten to harm you or a member of your family, or damage your home or property,
ask for personal information over the phone (except to verify information you already gave us),
ask for financial information over the phone,
try to rush you into paying right away,
ask you to pay fees using prepaid credit cards, Western Union, Money Gram, gift cards, or any other similar services, or
send police to arrest you for unpaid fees.
If you get a suspicious immigration call, you should:
Ask for the name of the person calling and then hang up.
Call our Call Centre to confirm that the call was real.
If the call wasn’t real, report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
If you have lost money to a scam artist, report it to your local police.
If you get a suspicious call about taxes, you should:
Hang up, then confirm if the call was real by calling the Canada Revenue Agency at 1-800-959-8281.
If the call wasn’t real, report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
If you have lost money to a scam artist, report it to your local police.
Note: If you use caller ID, an agency’s phone number may appear real, but is not. Some scam artists use technology to fake the number, so this is not always proof that a caller is legitimate.
Fake emails
What happens: You may get an email trying to convince you to invest money or to give personal information or passwords related to your banking accounts.
What to do: Delete it. Legitimate investors don’t send bulk emails to people they do not know.
Watch out for emails from a stranger that direct you to a website that asks for personal information. Never give out personal information unless you know who you are giving it to, and that the website is secure.

If you get this kind of email, don’t click on any links or give any information about yourself. If you have any doubts about where the email came from, make sure to check the identity of the sender.

Fake computer virus
What happens: You may get a phone call or email saying that your computer has been infected with a virus. The caller or sender will offer to remove the virus from your computer. The person will try to get your computer passwords and other private information.

What to do: Never give access to your computer to someone you didn’t contact for help. You should only have your computer fixed at a professional shop, or install anti-virus software bought from a trusted store.

Fake prizes
What happens: If you get a phone or text message that says you won something, but you did not enter a contest, it is probably a scam.

What to do: If you get a text message from a stranger, and it directs you to a form that asks you to enter any personal information, delete the text. Do not enter any information.

If the text tells you to text “STOP” or “NO” so you don’t get more texts, delete it. Do not reply. Scam artists do this to confirm they have a real phone number.

Thanks Uncle

uncle
how about investing in Canada?
Can you recommend some TFSA investment options?
2022-04-03 08:53:03
My brother went to CUNY Baruch too. He retired from IRS.
Is your office in Manhattan?
2022-04-03 08:56:14
I am not good at investing.
Be very careful when trading in TFSA.

TFSA Stock Trading Rules
You may be surprised to learn that your trading activity could constitute a business, even if it’s done inside a TFSA. The tax rules mean that should a TFSA operate like a business then they have to pay income tax.

Recently, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has focused their audits on taxpayers that are actively trading within their Tax-Free Savings account.

The CRA takes account a number of things into account when determining whether or not a TFSA is subject to income tax. These include the duration of the holdings, the frequency of the transaction and your intention to hold investments for resale at a profit.

In situations where one or more TFSA taxes are applicable, a TFSA return must be filled out and sent by June 30 of the year following the calendar year in which the tax arose.

That's a long ride from flushing.
I decided to return to Canada after those long subway train ride to Manhattan for in-firm interviews. It was Big 8 back then. I ended up with PW (now PWC) in Toronto.

wrote your CPA yet?
2022-04-03 10:49:00
A master’s at u of t is sufficient. A lot of masters in the US are cash cows and not worth the money especially if you plan to come back to Canada.

Canadian federal government and banks essentially hire graduates from all sorts of universities.

The ranking doesn’t matter as much because we have more education equality here compared to the states.

What matters is the skill sets that you have developed from your program and your ability to apply them.

Good luck.

Digital devices
Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers are allowed to examine all goods you have with you when you cross the border. This means that just like your luggage, our officers can examine your cell phones, tablets, laptops and any other digital device you are carrying.

A digital device is defined as any device that is capable of storing digital data, such as:

cell phones
smartphones
computers
tablets
removable media
drives
cameras
smartwatches
any other device capable of storing digital data
Why we examine digital devices
The CBSA has always had a policy on examination of goods. To provide greater certainty, the Agency now has a dedicated policy on examination of digital devices at ports of entry.

CBSA officers do not always examine digital devices. Our policy is to examine a device only if we think we will find evidence on it that border laws have been broken.

Reasons an officer might examine your digital device(s) include concerns regarding your:

admissibility or admissibility of your goods
identity
failure to comply with Canadian laws or regulations
What to expect if we examine your digital device
A CBSA officer will start with some questions before examining your digital device. To examine the digital device, the officer will first ask for the password which will be written down on a piece of paper. You are obligated to provide your password when asked.

Failure to grant access to your digital device may result in the detention of that device under section 101 of the Customs Act, or seizure of the device under subsection 140 (1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

The officer should turn your device on airplane mode to disable its ability to send and receive information. This ensures they can only access information stored on the device.

They will not have access to:

social media
banking websites
emails not stored on the device
The officer will usually examine your device in your presence, unless there are operational considerations that make it inappropriate to do so.
