How to fill this in

The CRA can look at control, ownership of tools, chance of profit, and risk of loss. Write those facts only if you are recording what you agreed.

This draft does not decide Canada Pension Plan or Employment Insurance status.

An employment contract is a different document. This PDF does not replace it and does not insert a termination clause.

Choose A4 or US Letter before you download. Empty dates, fees, and deliverables stay empty. Clauses you leave blank are omitted. The PDF does not decide employment status and does not add tax, confidentiality, or termination wording.

FAQ

Does this decide employee or self-employed status?

No. The CRA looks at the working relationship, not only the contract label. This page does not request a ruling.

Does it decide CPP or EI?

No. Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance status are separate. Nothing is calculated here.

Which currency does it use?

Canadian dollars. The fee stays blank until you type it.
