Working From Canada remotely for US Company and Payroll in US

Post by vpr »

I am working in US on a TN Status. But I want to move to Canada for a Year. Employer is ok to work from Canada.

My Question is can they continue to run the Payroll in USA while I am remotely working from Canada?

Thanks,
vpr

No. you would be a CDn resident working in Canada. Would require CDn payroll or agent.

Am in a similar board, what is meant by an Agent? I was wondering about the same, can I just hire my personal agent? If so, how about who gets the first share of the tax?

This would be a Cdn agency. There would be no tax in US, since you would be living and working in Canada.

I was offered a job with a large and respected home buying company https://www.thepropertybuyingcompany.co.uk/. It was a good experience I got! Working as a remote sales manager is the most in-demand job globally. Such an employee's earnings are not limited by anything and depend only on experience. The specifics of these earnings quite allow you to work remotely. The size of a freelancer's earnings always depends on several indicators. But most often the salary depends on the percentage of sales! Some companies offer a fixed rate. There is a huge selection of jobs on the Internet!
