Filing my taxes as a foreign worker in the regions of Quebec

Are you a foreign worker working in a remote region of Quebec?

Whether you are on the North Shore, in Whether you live in Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine, Abitibi-Témiscamingue or Northern Quebec, your tax obligations depend primarily on your status, your stay in Canada and your income, regardless of the region where you work.

Working in a remote region: what changes (and what doesn't)

Canadian tax rules are the same everywhere in Quebec.
However, working in a remote area can make access to information and services more complex.

In practice, foreign workers in the region:

  • often have a temporary or seasonal stay;
  • arrive or leave during the year;
  • have few specialized local resources;
  • They often have to manage their tax return remotely, sometimes after leaving Canada.

That is why appropriate and clear support is essential.
