Freelance ontop of FT employment – visa is not an issue

Hey guys,

Anyone here doing freelance on top of their FT employment? I have child of japanese national visa and no restrictions. I am more curious about if there is any thing I should know before i do freelance? Should I let my FT employer know? tax issue?

would like to hear peoples experiences on this.

thank you

  1. You don’t have to let your FT employer know, technically, but you should check your contract to see if there are any clauses that prevent you from taking on additional work.

    If you’ve been letting your FT employer do your end of the year tax adjustment, they’ll know around Feb/Mar if you’re getting additional income. If you don’t want them to know, you’ll have to let them know that you’ll do your own tax adjustment.
