Tax for resident with RFC but less than 183 days

I've never heard of them "coming after" a temporary resident for not filing. Have you made a lot of money that the gob is aware of? If not, then you're pretty much under the radar.

I am also looking for a Mexico income tax specialist, we are permanent resident with CURP and RFC.

Retirees, not working, renting ( do not own realestate ), no bank account in Mexico our revenues are from Canadian pension where Canada is witholding 15% tax at source.

As Mexico is taxing residents on their worldwide revenues do we need to file an income tax report?

I know we will be credited tax already paid at source but if our tax bracket in Mex is 25% we will still have to pay 10% (25%-15%=10%).

For Canadians non resident a good youtube video to watch:

Quote from another poater:

"This, according to Price Waterhouse, is how it is determined whether you are a Mexican tax resident and therefor taxed on your Worldwide income:-

“The Federal Tax Code provides that a person is a resident for Mexican tax purposes when that person establishes a home in Mexico. If the individual has a home in another country, then the individual is a resident of the country where the individual's centre of vital interests is located. Under Mexican domestic tax law, a person's centre of vital interests is considered located in Mexico if either (i) more than 50% of the person's income comes from Mexican sources in a calendar year or (ii) Mexico is the primary place of the person's professional activities.”

@Captnflex

did you find out the answer re the tax filing?

I am in a similar situation.

Canadian about to get my permanent visa in Mexico but will rent not own, no bank account and ideally wanting to stay about  6 months to 10 months each year for now and  am not breaking ties with Canada yet.  My concern is do I need to file a Mexico tax return. Yes we do have an agreement between the 2 countries and that is fair but I am trying to simplify my life now retired not add more issues with filing taxes in 2 countries and needing a tax accountant in Mexico.

No i am still looking for an official answer

Thanks for the quick reply.I am not going ahead with my permanent visa.If I was breaking ties with Canada completely at this point I would.Reading an article under escapeartist.com : Taxation of Expats Living In Mexico. Very informative.In my situation I just don't want surprises nor filing 2 tax returns.

It was under escape artists with no spaces and a dot com. They won't post the link.

FYI we got our permanent residency and when we went to get our RFC i told them my revenues are from Cdn pension and taxed dividends at source in Canada, no Mx bank account, no work in Mx, no propery only renting, need RFC to buy a car.

No Mx source revenu, do i need to fill income tax in Mx? They told me no.

Unless i find a different official source i will go with that!

That's really good it worked out for you.

I flew in today to PV and let my passport sticker for permanent visa go. Very disappointing but as I said was worried on being taxed on dividends etc.

I had no positive proof that I would not file a tax return and just did not want that extra issue.
