Hello,

Is it possible to work as a consultant/contractor for a U.S. employer while residing in Canada as full-time student on a Study Permit? The work would all be done virtually, via telecommuting.

I am assuming not and that at minimum a Co-op work permit is needed, but thought I would pose the question here since the work is not affecting the Canadian Labor market and the payments would be made in the U.S. and in U.S. funds.

What about during winter and summer breaks when the student is not a technically a student?

Thanks for any information.
