Click the property-active listings and click into any property, then use their "mortgage calculator", it is very detail and show you all the breakdowns.

yes....我有朋友話this is only for new house in 樓花you buy then will give you no tax if first buyer in the world....if you buy 2nd hand house s no count on this
Sorry for using short form. What I mean is Revenue Canada (tax office). It is referring for Canadian came back to work in HK and claim status as non resident so when they decided to return to Canada, the money they brought with them will not be taxed. Cause they can explain with proof it was the money they owned during non-residency period including the flat sold in Hong Kong.
For PR, no such non resident status will be granted and if the amount you kept in Hong Kong was not disclosed to Revenue Canada before, you will be taxed if bringing back or being found out by the tax office.
Hope it is helpful cause I worked for Revenue Canada some many years ago and not sure if they change the rule recently.
Sorry Helenhhh, further info for your case: since you are not a PR yet, you are still applying to go to Canada, what ever money you are going to bring to Canada will not be taxed as long as you bring them with you. If you are going to keep some in Hong Kong, any income or interest generated will be taxed. Of course many people did not disclose to the government and they will take the risk of being found by tax office in the future.
