请教:做CONTRACT 注册bussiness number 问题

[PrepareSCEA]

因为下个月去做一个contract位置, 朋友建议注册一个bussiness比较合算, 可以把GST省下来, 另外还可以把一些开销抵税.

试着在网上注册, 有好多信息不是很明白. 请教有经验的人士
1: 象我这种只是做CONTRACT的, 应该注册什么样的bussiness 比较合适, 是
Sole Proprietorship
Corpration incorprated?
对将来报税, 有什么好处和约束? 如果注册Corpration incorprated, 是不是要专门雇个会计算每给月交给政府的税?

2: 需要注册什么account?
Corporate Income Tax
Goods and Services / Harmonized Sales Tax
Payroll Deductions,
Import / Export accounts).

making 200k less, you do not need business number. get a business number, you can charge GST (they have to agree to pay first).
There are four places to deal with if it is INC.
1) Industry Canada
2) Revenue Canada
3) Provincial Fianance Ministry
4) GST account

I would do sole if your client does not mind. (I have done both. lots of paper work for INC)

Thanks a lot, I thought Sole, but don't know the difference.
One more question, which account is required?

 

[吾言]

You are required to charge GST if your revenues is over 30K/year. Check CRA website

For a sole, you just need a GST account. I did mine at 333 Laurier office.

今天打电话过去, 告诉他做CONTRACT, 然后问是SOLE还是incorprate, 我说SOLE. 然后他就给了一个GST NO, 完了.

事情简单的我都有点怀疑, 是不是应该这样?

They should also ask you how often you want to file your GST. If you are not earning much, probably once a year.

As as sole proprietorship, you should use only "your full name" to do business. If you use anything else, even like your name is "John Wang", and you use "John Wang painting", it will violate the law and you will be sued. You need to register such as a business name in the province.

Yeah, just that kind of simple. It can be done online in a few minutes.

Most IT consulting companies, such as Excel HR, they need the contractor is corporated.
It means it's business to business. If you're corporated, they can give you a contract
after a contract after a contract till forever without paying EI and benefit for you.
It's illegal if you're not corporated.
If you're in this case, you have to register a business, not only a GST number.

 

[吾言]

They dont need to pay any EI or CPP even you are solo or partner.

 

[PrepareSCEA]

Thanks a lot.

Maybe I'd better change to incoprate.

If I am incoprated, the rate can go up $4 each hour.

For current contract, the agent will pay the CPP and EI for me.

You can not be incorporated if they pay EI and CPP

In your current case,
you should either be incorporated, get $4 per hour higher, but they will not buy EI and CPP for you;
or if you want them to contribute to EI and CPP, you might need to be their employee.

yes, you're right. that's the option for me.

Maybe I just make thing simple, and let the agent take care of EI and CPP, and I keep the contract as is.
