Just think : living in Canada and working even abroad you have to pay taxes in Canada. At least file Tax Return. What income will you show there? From what source? Correct answer is from WORKING.

Just think : living in Canada and working even abroad you have to pay taxes in Canada. At least file Tax Return. What income will you show there? From what source? Correct answer is from WORKING. Do you think CIC will not have question to you after that? 
Or you just want to work in secret without filing Tax Return? Well, your choice and all consequences also will be yours.

Either you are not getting it or may be I am wrong.Regina said:Just think : living in Canada and working even abroad you have to pay taxes in Canada. At least file Tax Return.

Let me try to explain.
If someone from your home country send you some money in Canada, who will ask you about it? What CIC has to do with it?
Similarly, if I got a job from Elance, I completed it and got money in my virtual account. Where is the CIC interference in that?
To the best of my knowledge, there is no working limit or something in case of freelancing (work from home i.e at Odesk, Elance, Freelance, etc.). You have money in your virtual account. You can use it anywhere. CIC has nothing to deal with it!
Are this money a gift? Then nobody cares. Is this money a salary and you do not report it on your Tax return? Then you are a lair.
You do not understand simple but very CANADIAN thing. If you lie about your income to Canada Revenue Agency not declaring your income as a "Canadian resident for tax purposes" (do not mix it up with Permanent residency), in Canada you are a lair.
If you are a lair CIC does care about that. ;D
There is nothing like "where you got that from".itstime said:
Some ask you to complete his/her homework. You do so and in reward he/she pays you some bucks in your virtual account (it is not the Canadian bank account and has no interference of SIN or something).
Now where is CIC in all this story????? What is so complex in this which is hard to understand and from where I bring the rules for that. There is nothing complex in it so rules for WHAT?
This is not the fixed salary which you are getting every month!Regina said:
Read my previous post to this one, may be you get the clear idea.
What part do not you understand? Too much info I guess.
OK, I try once more.
ANY person who lives in Canada longer than 183 days a year + has some sort of residency and ties in Canada HAS TO DECLARE ANNUAL income from any country worldwide. Period.
I guess they require some government issued document before and verification and before you receive money.usman_14pk said:
What you can do is create an account in your resident country get it verified there and use the same account to bid and get work in Canada still i am pretty sure elance would be checking the country you had registered with and the country you are using the account.
Now to break this you will need a person in your resident country to bid on your behalf and then send you the details via some other means like email.
Quite tricky i guess
What for? TO open bank account?
No. Is is called CASUAL JOB and you have to declare it all by yourself. (Welcome to Canada!
)If you do not, you are a lair and will have to accept consequences.
There is no need to create a bank account in some country.singh-ak said:
Your "Virtual Account" is more than enough
YUP!Regina said:
You were right. We need to declare it as well.
Thanks for the major correction!
