Hello Vinícius, first of all thank you for the quality content and the attention you give to your readers, I'm really impressed with your work.

I have a question that I can't find the answer to anywhere.
I'm living in Canada, but I receive alimony on my CPF in a bank account in Brazil. An accountant instructed me to stop paying alimony in 2022 and report my permanent departure. In 2023 I would declare everything in Canada.
I receive the pension in a Brazilian account and transfer part of it to an account in Brazil and the other part I convert into Canadian dollars.
I'm not sure which is the right way to declare this: whether to keep paying the tax card and maintain my dual tax residency, or whether to stop paying and declare everything here. My status here is temporary for now, but I'll be here for at least the next five years. I have income from work here in Canada, and my only link with Brazil is this pension.
I'd be grateful if you could shed some light on this.

Hugs and thanks again.
