Re: Tax question - working for a UK company while in Canada

Ok, that's interesting - and directly contradicts what has already been said.

So, who is correct? Any links?

Hi all,

We're currently in Canada on a TWP. I work for a Canadian company, get paid in Canada, and am taxed in Canada.

My wife has an offer of a contract from a UK company to work for them...

Re: Does it have to be HSBC?

I don't think there are any other viable options.

I don't know why you don't like HSBC though, I've been with them for 21 years (since they were Midland), and have had no problems.

Re: Victoria BC

If you're prepared to drive 15-20km or so, you can get a nice house on that salary. Out west, past Langford, there's plenty of decent housing.

Re: Victoria BC

I think it really depends on what kind of life you want.

Can you live in Victoria (or rather, in a suburb) on $65k? Of course, a large percentage of the population do. Can you buy a fancy house...

Re: BC PNP processing times, what is going on?

We gave up after 10 months - hard to trust an organisation that says 14-18 weeks and takes over 10 months.

Came here on a TWP instead. Whole process took 6 weeks.

Re: Would I have a better life in Canada

As others have said, why agonise over it, why not just come over and have a go?

Re: Would I have a better life in Canada

I think they might be, you know...

You're 39, but you haven't had to apply for a job in 24 years. Yet you have such a hard life in Switzerland that you want to live in Moncton or Nanaimo.

Re: Shock and panic

Well, I obviously don't have the in-depth knowledge of vast numbers of large companies that you do, but the 4 I do know about all do ALMOs.

I don't know any small companies that have used ALMOs.

My company is a large multinational. Yes, they do a lot of intra-company transfers, but they do even more TFW LMOs. This is because there are a lot of people they want to bring in who aren't already...

Re: Shock and panic

A large company will have applied for a bunch of LMOs, and will be part of the ALMO scheme - that's a fact! Large companies apply for a lot of LMOs, that's why the ALMO scheme exists.
