Hello,

My employer in the US is willing to hire me as an Independent Contractor, once I move to Canada (Vancouver BC area). I would like to hear from people who have successfully done so in the past and have established themselves as Independent Contractors working for the US employers.
I would like to know the process of how to establish as an independent contractor, meaning how to set up my LLC/incorporate ? . Currently, I have a limited understanding of the terms. Do I need to hire a lawyer (if yes, will appreciate any recommendations ) and a tax consultant firm (again, recommendations appreciated)
I would like to know what are the tax and finance consideration.
I would like to know if there are other viable options

Please comment and provide recommendations if any.
