Hi – this will not impact the 2025 filing but will likely impact my 2026.
I am a Canadian working in the US on an H1B. I have done one year of non resident filing and one year of resident filing. These have all gone well!
However, for a year and a half I was stuck negotiating back pay with my last employer in Canada. It is related to work I did in 2024, before I ended my contract and moved to work in the States. Then it took a year and a half to get them to finally give me what I was owed, which means it will be on my 2026 tax return.
As someone who is very anxious and a TurboTax level of tax filing, what are the implications of this? I’m not sure what to even look for, in terms of what’s happened.
Thank you in advance.
