Hello everyone!
I apologize for a similar post to others but I couldn't find anything directly related to my question.
I'm thinking of applying for a WHV from Canada and am a little wary of the laws surrounding it. I want to continue working for my Canadian company doing remote work which there are lots of posts about on this subreddit that were very helpful, and from them, I got that the main thing to worry about when doing this is switching to an independent contracting position within your company. This makes a lot of sense to me but I'm still a little confused on how to format the visa application. I'm not sure if I should mention my intention to work remotely while in Japan or not go into specifics with it. I know that the main purpose of the visa is to explore Japanese culture and experience life in Japan which is still my primary focus when there, so I'm wondering if it even needs to be mentioned that I'll be working full-time.
If anyone has experience with this or understands the laws surrounding the working holiday visa I would love to hear your thoughts!
(Also if I somehow missed something related to this in the FAQ of this subreddit, I'm really sorry and it would be great if you could point it out!)
