In case you meet all requirements, you can claim a tax treaty as a resident of Canada on your US sourced income:
- Income from employment, where the payer can be any contractor. The tax article is XV and the period of usage is unlimited. The maximum amount you can claim however is $10,000. Please keep in mind that if you surpass that amount with even one cent, you would become ineligible to use the tax treaty.
You can find more information about the US-Canada tax treaty on the IRS website here.
Info: Please be aware that whether you can use the certain tax treaty or not depends not only on your visa type but also your income documents received as well as the period of time spent in the US, your country of residence etc.
