Hi there,

So I know the NAFTA Temp work permit is tailored for American individuals to come over to Canada and work temporarily, however does this also work if a company in Canada wants to hire a US consulting *company* that I own? Basically, Canadian Company Hires American Company and I'm the employer of the American Company. For my own tax purposes I thought this would be better.

1. You answered your own question. NAFTA only applies to individuals.

Thanks but I was referring more to a corporation getting hired on by a Canadian corp and if there is a similar NAFTA program pertaining to this situation.
