I am also living in Canada and currently self-employed and working from home online. I am earning USD from more than one US-based companies in exchange of providing them remote business services like back office management, reporting. etc. using online connections. I am receiving my remuneration via checks in mail. As I am not a permanent resident or US citizen, I, therefore, am not supposed to pay any tax in USA.
If I open a corporation in Canada with only one shareholder (me) , will it be considered a CCPC and not considered a personal service business corporation?
Yes, it will be considered to be a CCPC carrying on an active business in Canada and not a personal services business.
