你是加拿大税务居民、同时是美国公民或绿卡持有者,在安省卖掉自住房:加拿大的自住房免税(PRE)可能让你一分税不交,但美国按公民身份对全球所得征税,IRC §121 的增值排除只到 USD $250,000/$500,000,超出部分可能要向 IRS 交税——而且加拿大没交税,就没有可抵扣的外国税收抵免。本文讲清这个落差和该找谁。
A vacant land condominium looks like an ordinary detached house, but title runs through a condominium corporation under Ontario’s Condominium Act, 1998. What it really is, why “freehold” is the trap, and the documents to demand before you sign.
安省「空地共管」(vacant land condominium)的房子外观像独立屋,产权上却挂着一家共管公司。它法律上就是 freehold condominium,但 freehold 不等于没有共管公司。本文用《Condominium Act, 1998》一手条文讲清这层语义差、申报书能管到什么,以及买前该要哪些文件。
An Ontario owner signs the house over to a spouse or child for a nominal price to dodge creditors. How the Fraudulent Conveyances Act lets creditors set it aside — and where an honest buyer's protection starts and stops.
安省《欺诈性转让法》(Fraudulent Conveyances Act) 下,为逃债把房产低价或无偿过户给亲戚,可被债权人申请撤销。逐条拆解第 2 条的意图要件、第 3 条的善意三要件盾,以及为什么「我付过钱」本身不是抗辩,善意买家又在什么边界内受保护。
Ontario’s principal residence exemption covers your home and its land — but only up to half a hectare (about 1.24 acres). Beyond that, the Income Tax Act deems the excess land not to count, unless you can establish it was necessary — not merely desirable — for living there. Where the rule actually lives in the Act, and what it takes to rebut the exclusion.
在安省卖自住房,很多大地块业主以为全额免税——但自住房免税默认只覆盖到半公顷(约 1.24 英亩)。超出部分依《所得税法》s.54 被推定不算自住房,除非你能证明它对居住「必要」。本文讲清这条规则的机制、砍的是哪部分、以及推翻推定要证明什么。
The qualified farm or fishing property (QFFP) exemption can shelter up to $1,250,000 of capital gain on a 2025 farm sale — but two profiles routinely fail to qualify: owners who held vacant farmland as an investment, and owners who rented their land to a farmer instead of working it themselves. Here is how to tell which side of the line your Ontario property is on before you sell.
