I am considering a potential position with a company that will be based in Canada (subsidary of an Austrian Company) The length of the assignment will be approximately 2 years.
I would be spending 4-5 days a week working thoughout Canada residing in hotels and/or temporary housing paid for by the company.
My family, wife and three children, would maintain our residence in Seattle.
Since I have not accepted the position as of yet, I am wondering what my tax situation would be.
I had read that as long as I am only in Canada less than 183 days a year, my tax situation will be only conducted in the US and I could be paid in American dollars.
Is this correct?
If not, I would like to understand all the potential implications, as it would be part of my negotiations.
