   Yep, and with the CRA, one ounce of prevention is worth 100 tons of   
   cure.  I would even get the mailing notarized the first year.  They tend   
   to loose stuff that help you out.  I had my US tax accountant CPA   
   notarize copies just in case.   
      
   Case in point, this year they sent my wife and I a notice that we did   
   not live in Canada, and not TFSA eligible and would be fined.  They sent   
   this to my Canadian address, with 7 years of filed Canadian income taxes   
   and Canadian employers at Canadians addresses and phone numbers.   
      
   I asked them too lookup the filings, they said it wasn't good enough.   
   So I sent them a copy of the customs paperwork.   
      
   Real dense chair mushrooms.  Get and keep the paperwork forever, just to   
   CYA.
