I should add... everyone who is a deemed Canadian resident for the entirety of each of those years will get their respective TFSA allowances.
I left Canada as a deemed non-resident, was working in the US as a biologist under NAFTA, and came back to Canada in 2008, and was a student... so I did not file a 2008 tax return. It seems (actually no surprise) that parts of our government do not talk to each other, so Canadian Customs and Border Patrol forms that declared my return at the border (with all my worldly belongings on file) never told Canada Revenue Agency... so I had to provide my landing documents, my bills, my bank statements, my driver's license and health card photocopies to CRA to show that I was indeed a resident in 2009, so that I have my TFSA allowance for 2009.
