should i classify as employed or self employed?

[acerbico423]

hello,

I am sponsoring my mother for PGP 2019 and I am filling in imm5768e for financial evaluation.
in that, I need to identify myself as employed or self-employed.
At present, I work through my incorporation (ABC Inc.) as a software consultant. Since the inception of my ABC Inc., I have had only 1 client (XYZ Inc.) and i bill them a biweekly invoice (through a 3rd company). This payment goes into my business bank account and I pay myself using payroll/bonuses and not dividends. As I use payroll, I am also remitting monthly tax remittance to the CRA. With this sort of arrangement, I either consider myself a full-time employee of ABC Inc. or XYZ Inc.
Also, should my employer be ABC (my incorporation) or XYZ (my client) on the imm5768e form?
Am I wrong in this assessment and should I identify myself as self-employed?

I would put the same status that you’ve stated on your tax returns.

And I might be wrong, but I don’t think this specific field is super important for the application.

Hi same question with me.
I am a doctor and have a medical corporation under my name.
I work in clinic and hospital as fee for service.
Do I consider myself ( self employed)

Yes. Doctors are self-employed unless you have arranged a fixed salary with your hospital.

@canuck78 same question for me as well. Would you kindly help?

We have declared my brother in law who owns incorporation as self-employed. In the employer name section, should I need to mention his client name along with his incorporation name (Ex: CONTRACT WORK FOR XYZ CLIENT (through ABC INC))?
Then, what should be the employer address, his client address where he works or his incorporation address?

He is employed by ABC not the client. His incorporation address should be specified.
