Requirements to start working in Canada

[EssJay]

Hello,

I plan on entering Canada with my landing Visa later in 2019. I plan on working as a contractor after entering Canada. Is anyone aware of the requirements to start work as a contractor in Canada?

1- do I have to have to have a registered business?
2- can I start working without a physical PR card?
3- can I start working without the SIN number?

Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

1. Depends upon what type of contracting and whether the client will require you to form a business or they will let you work as independent contractor
2. Yes
3. No, but you can get it immediately after landing
