| MR. BARRY,
Usually, we file these types of taxpayers as part-year (dual status in the U.S.) residents of each country. She would report world income to Canada until AUgust 1, 2007 and world income to U.S. for the rest of the year. In New York, she would also file as a part year resident. If she does not have 183 days in the U.S. during the year, or meet the closer connection test, she may file as a nonresident in the U.S. for 2007. | |

| thank you for your expertise. to review .this. If Canadian income was 20,000 for 7 months and US
income was 15,000 for last five months, then I would file Canadian return (part-year) on 35,000 of income and file nonresident US form on 35,000 for part-year remaining 5 months | |
