Assuming you mean the state and not the country of Georgia, does the US resident have any dependent children? Is the Canada resident in Quebec, which from what I can figure out recognizes community property, although I'm not sure how that affects taxes? Does the Canadian resident have a US green card (resident visa, even if not a resident)?
