@JT Marlin @Polska krowa and @Turd Fergusson a little late, and I hate to add to the tax talk, but my limited understanding from doing enough studying of Canadian tax law to pass the bar exam 10 plus years ago is this:
Chantal has an undischarged bankruptcy on her CRA file. CRA is not her only creditor on the bankruptcy. She owes taxes yes, but every other creditor she owes money to is also able to come for her to get what's theirs now (the Kia financer, credit card companies, pay day loan places...). Point being CRA is not going to let her fill out any form that allows her to not pay taxes on income she has deposited into a Canadian bank given the fact she already owes them tons of back taxes.
She'd be stupid to fill out said form. Dear CRA, who I fled from, here's my location and banking info in the country I fled to (also feeling the country to avoid paying taxes is an offence in Canada), could I like not pay anymore income tax now?
To be a resident of Kuwait she would need a civil ID as has been discussed many times here. She does not have a civil ID which is why she has to border hop or Thailand beeze every 3 months.
She is on a tourist visa. You can't open a Kuwait bank account with a tourist visa so she can't be a resident or bank there so she can't even fill out that CRA form to try and convince Canada to let her out of taxes.
I've never practiced tax law, but no tax lawyer would advise Chantal on how to limit her liability right now re Canada...I mean that might come up eventually, but first and foremost any decent lawyer would be suggesting she immediately reconsider her current life choice to live on the margins of an autocratic country that is deportation happy while dodging her taxes in Canada and operating on the misguided belief she is legally married and does not have to file income tax in Canada this year (at least not without producing the law and documentation she is relying on to prove her delusions).
Sorry to sperg, but her living situation gives me the scares as a lawyer like she's fucked eventually and actually.
