Waivers of withholding tax
If you are a non-resident providing self-employment or employment services, you may be able to request a waiver or reduction of the normal withholding.
There may be no need for you to apply for and receive a waiver of withholding from the CRA if your employer has been certified as a qualifying non-resident employer and you are a qualifying non-resident employee.
As soon as you become aware that you will be working in Canada you should confirm if your employer is a qualifying non-resident employer and if you are required to apply for and obtain a waiver of withholding. For more information, see Non-resident employer certification.
If you are required to apply for a waiver of withholding, these topics will be of assistance to you.
