residency and Taxes

3 years ago
Hello. i am planning on moving to Belize later this year to start my 50 weeks in order to get my residency. Am a Canadian senior (67) My question is: When do i actually submit my documents?.....is it within the first 30 days of getting my passport stamped from the day that i arrive at P.G.I.A.?....or does customs give me a certain time frame to go to Belmopan and file my documents?
Also, have heard that the Canadian Govt. deducts 25% from my Canadian pensions...(i get OAS and CPP every month) as Canada does not have a tax treaty with Belize. Is this true? Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
