There are probably some tax treaties between Canada and US but i am not sure of the details. You can cross the border again, but the immigration officer also needs to be certain that your intent is to VISIT not live, which would be difficult once you cross six month mark. Being a US citizen you are only allowed to stay as a visitor for 6 months max in one go. The real question is that you are not a permanent resident or an authorized worker. This term factual resident is described in detail and can easily be found on CRA website. So even if you are not a permanent resident or authorized temp worker, you might be a "factual resident" for tax purposes. if i live in Ontario province and work in Quebec, i would be paying taxes by Ontario law. Taxes in Canada are not based upon location of employment, but are based upon place of residence. However, that does not let you get away from Taxes. So as long as your employer is not established as a business in Canada, those restrictions do not apply. and I don't think an Immigration Office can assist with this, as I'm not entering the US so much as I am LEAVING it for a time.Īll the restrictions about being authorized to work in Canada apply to "working for an employer based in Canada". I reside in Florida, so unfortunately the closest Consulates are 6+ hours in each direction, and the "phone numbers" have restrictions on what you can and can't call about. I want to stay employed with my current company, who allows me to work anywhere as my home is my office, but I am not a "contractor" or anything like that - I file a W4 and have direct deposit and everything I have is dealt in American Currencies and with the IRS, where I get a normal W2 at the end of the fiscal year. I delved into the "Temporary Visitor" and "Temporary Resident" status, but it just doesn't seem to fit. I want to avoid any unneeded Visas, as I don't NEED one to visit Canada for up to 6 Months. My partner and I are not common-law partners and we're not married/engaged in any sense. I do not plan to stay for more than a year without making a decision on whether to become a citizen or return to the US. I will not be "competing" for labor within Canada in any circumstance, and I will not be the "Head of household" in any regard. If I'm not planning to work for any Canadian country, where do I start and what do I need to do to get on the path to living in Canada as a US Citizen who works for a US Company?.Would I need to pay taxes in both countries, or one?.Should I be looking into any sort of Visas or Permits to accomplish this?.Can I work remotely while living in Canada?.My partner resides in Canada as a Citizen, and our intent is to be able to experience living together for a year before making any decisions on who immigrates where upon our decision to get married. So I've been doing a lot of research these past few months as I am in training with a US Employer to work remotely from home.
