Hi,
I have a tfw permit valid for the next 2 years (Got it through a positive LMO)
I have another job wanting to hire me but would like me to invoice them.
What is the process to get self employed or able to invoice for work ? Is it possible ?

Not possible. There is no temporary self employed visa.

If you wish to work for a new / different employer, that employer needs to obtain a new LMO and then you must obtain a new closed work permit.

Hello, I just wanted to understand if it is possible to do freelance work here in Canada if I got an Open Work Permit.
I am a Freelance Designer and my idea is to work for different clients and invoice them.
Please if you could guide me on how to do this I will appreciate.

My Best.

If you have an open work permit - then yes, you can freelance.
