I am living in USA on a Green Card status.

Have a client in Canada, who sends me payments at least twice a year.

What is the best way to get that money in order pay Lowest possible tax.

as an independent contractor'? or should I register a company?

thanks for your reply Nelson.

Should I also need to get a letter from the person says that he sent me this money as gift/loan return?

working under TN in USA, I went outside USA (not Canada) and performed some work for a Canadian Company and now the company is sending me $10,000/- check for the services performed in 2006. How should I disclose this income, pay taxes in Canada? of-course I have to pay tax in USA but can I claim my ...

I am sorry didn't get this "no" part. I do have full time TN. I need part time TN for another company. That another company is own by "Green Card Holder". I am thinking to get TN for that company so have a legal formality fulfilled. Or I have to have a American Citizen's company ...

So I assume that the GreenCard Holder's company can also hire me on Part Time TN.

please let me know if that is not correct.

thanks,

What I meant to ask was, if a green card holder have a company, he can't hired me (on a part time TN)?

Why there is a condition for the American Citizens' company?

just curious to know..

thanks
