Q: With Web Broker I have US stocks in my RRSP account. I also have US Stocks in my US open account.
In my US account itself my overall cost for stock purchases is just below the $100,000 level so I don't need to fill out the T1135 Foreign Property form.
I now have cash building up in my US open account. To avoid going over the $100,000 cost level, yet still wanting to receive increasing dividends in USD, would it make sense to purchase Canadian stocks listed on the NYSE that pay dividends in USD? My goal is to have USD dividends coming in for travel south during retirement. I am assuming I would receive the dividend credit for Canadian-based stocks listed on the NYSE (?)
