Ask under PNP section but the company must be based and have office(s) in Alberta. Not sure what you mean based on Alberta tax system. Either have offices in province or not.
The company based taxes are calculated from Ontario because that’s where their offices are located . If they have offices in Alberta that’s where the taxes are based . I assume when you are stating taxes it’s payroll taxes and not corporate taxes . If they do not have any offices in Alberta , then your payroll taxes are based upon where the office is . In this case, Ontario , thus Ontario taxes.
It’s the office you REPORT to . No office in Alberta it sounds like , so you report to the Ontario office.

Actually yes by taxes i meant the payroll pays us deducting federal and provincial tax based on alberta tax system but there is no physical location in Alberta itself its fully remote but a noc b job the thing here is if the taxes they are deducting is based on our location the experience i will have should also be counted towards Alberta in that case but as there is no physical location that is concerning for me
There is no office in Alberta physically remote position only but payroll is based on Alberta tax system that’s confusing for me
Look at page 56 of the link I sent . You are deducted payroll taxes , EI CPP fed provincial taxes based upon WHERE the office is located . It’s located in Ontario, so the payroll is based upon Ontario payroll calculations, not Alberta .
Example. I work in Ontario . I pay Ontario taxes . If I went to Alberta to work I’d pay Alberta taxes , since my company has offices in Alberta . If they didn’t , I’d continue to pay Ontario taxes .
The Alberta employer must:
- be incorporated or registered by or under an act of the legislature of a province, territory or the Parliament of Canada and that is operating an established production capacity, plant or a place of business in Alberta
- have been in continuous and active operation in Alberta for a minimum of 2 complete fiscal years (the year used for tax or accounting purposes) prior to application submission
- have a place of doing business in Alberta where employees can report to work regularly as needed and where work assignments are issued

Yes its the same company i was working with before, i always had that question so once they told me that they are deducting taxes based on my location as i am working remotely from Alberta
But as of the link you send its not the same case for sure will have to confirm again in that case witj the payroll department
It’s irrelevant if they are, or are not
Do they have a brick & mortar office in Alberta ?
Yes or No ?
If not if you an issue

They need a physical office. The whole point of the program is to assist Alberta based businesses. Apply through OINP.
