Work Permit and Caregiver

[rsimmigration]

Can a work permit holder get a BN number for a Caregiver application. Upon calling ESDC, they said there is no restriction. But Canada Revenue Agency issues the BN and nobody there knows the answer.

Does it matter if the work permit is open or closed?

any ideas?

Why would the live in caregiver need a business number?

A Caregiver application requires a BN number.

Ah okay, I didn't know that.
The family that the live in caregiver is going to work for needs to get it, I believe.
