Temp. work permit and contractor position

Postby cug on Thu May 24, 2007 11:53 am

Hi.

I have a temporary work permit for a Calgary company. My wife has an open work permit via the spousal program and she has been offered a position as a contractor in a health research facility (not health care, but administration).

Is she allowed to work as a contractor? Does someone know about liabilities, exclusion of liability? What are the steps she has to go to be able to write invoices? Links or hints would be very helpful!

Thank you!

An open work permit would allow her to work as a contractor.
