Good evening,
I'm a foreign based contractor for a Canadian company. I have been for quite a few years now. I have sub contractors and everything, pay taxes and accountants in my home country and my work is online and entirely remote. Nothing ever in person. Nothing could ever be needed In person and this is 100% remote work.
I am currently in Canada physically and have not undertaken any work so far - this is a vacation. I would like to stay for a few months but I'm unsure on the legality of my work situation.
Am I allowed to work while here? Given my contractor status, are my subcontractors allowed to work while I'm here? Can I earn from the company while I'm here through my subcontractors if I'm not actually doing any work?
I'm struggling to find answers. Everything I find relates to employees. I'm not an employee.
I appreciate any and all insight!
