Can I e-file my US tax return when I have Canidian RRIF income and Canadian tax withheld or do I have to file by mail, as I have done in past years?
I also have other US retirement income. In the past years I have sent in a copy of the Canadian NR4 form, which shows the amount of retirement income and the Canadian tax withheld. If I can e-file what do I do with the NR4 form?
