Work for a US Company Remotely from Canada. Legally.
Are you a Canadian skilled professional or new grad with a job offer or an existing work arrangement with an American company? Learn how to work remotely in Canada, legally and effectively.
You got a US job offer but need an Employer of Record to work remotely from Canada?
As remote work becomes the new normal and jobs in specific sectors come more into global demand, opportunities for skilled employees are endless. You got a job offer from a US company, but do not want to leave Canada. Or maybe you are already consulting with US companies or are taking risks with the CRA and doing work without proper employment arrangements.
We’ve helped hundreds of Canadian professionals work
remotely for top American companies
Why do I need an Employer of Record (EOR) when I can easily be a “contractor”?
There are several risks and legalities of working from Canada for a US employer.
Moreover working as “contractor” in Canada is not the same as USA.
You won’t get access to Canadian healthcare benefits and will have a tough time filing taxes or securing any kind of loan in Canada without proof of a Canadian employer.
Who is this for?
- Skilled Canadian professionals or new grads with a job offer from a US company who want to work legally and without risk remotely from Canada
- Canadian professionals currently working in the US who want to work their current job remotely from Canada, without the risk and with all the benefits.
- Skilled Canadian consultants who are working in large capacity with a US company and want to reduce their risk and increase their benefits remotely from Canada
