Yes Anna, you can do this. Helping the agency understand that though, is a
different matter. Present the agency with your GST number, and have them pay
you sans deductions.
Now, perhaps some people are going to try and shoot me down on this, so let me
tell you I worked this way for years, occasionally through agencies, with no
problem. It is accepted by Revenue Canada as well.
Contact me directly if you have any other questions.
PS - Are you working for Magma International? Just curious.
