Instructions

•Use this form if you are a non-resident receiving rent from real or immovable property or a timber royalty and you want your agent to be able to elect to deduct and remit tax at the applicable rate on the net amounts available to you. Your agent must be a resident of Canada to whom the rental payments are paid or credited on your behalf when this form is signed.

•File a separate form for each tax year. For individuals, the tax year corresponds to the calendar year (January 1 to December 31). For corporations, estates, and trusts, the tax year can differ from the calendar year; therefore, for these entities, indicate the fiscal year end.

•File this form on or before the first day of each tax year, or when the first rental payment is due.

•Complete all applicable sections on this form. An incomplete form will not be accepted as a valid undertaking and will be returned.

•We will advise both the non-resident and the agent in writing when a valid undertaking is approved.

•Your agent must continue to withhold and remit non-resident tax based on the gross rental income until we approve a valid undertaking in writing. If a valid NR6 is approved, the non-resident withholding tax must be determined when the actual rental payment is made taking into account expenses (excluding CCA). We must receive any non-resident tax withheld by the 15th day of the month following the month during which the rental payment was paid or credited to the agent on the non-resident's behalf.

•The non-resident undertakes to file an income tax return, whether there is a profit or a loss situation, under subsection 216(4) of the Canadian Income Tax Act within six months of the end of the tax year for which the undertaking is filed. Each non-resident member of a partnership who files a valid undertaking must file a separate income tax return. For information on how to complete a Section 216 return, see the Income Tax Guide for Non-Residents Electing Under Section 216.

•The agent has to file an NR4 return before March 31 of the year after the year in which the rental income was paid or credited, or within 90 days of the fiscal year end for estates and trusts. For information on how to complete the NR4 return, see the T4061 Non-Resident Withholding Tax Guide.

•Send the completed application to the Non-Resident Withholding Section, Canada Revenue Agency, P.O. Box 20000, Station A, Sudbury ON P3A 5C1.
