I'm wondering if anybody else has this situation. An accountants view would be good
I understand it is very difficult (if not impossible) to prove "living separate and apart" to the CRA, if you don't have lots of documentation that proves otherwise.
We agree that we were "separated" in August 2014 (marriage is done), but continued to live together in the same house, sharing joint accounts/credit cards, all expenses until beginning of March 2015 when she moved into her new house.
So I will claim the Family Tax Cut, and file as married since we were not "living separate and apart" until March 15 Will notify the CRA of this as required in 90 days hence.
Would it be fair to say that CRA and The Law will hold two different dates regarding our separation?
