When does Article V(9) create a services PE between the US and Canada?
The compiled answer
Two limbs, both needing 183 DAYS OR MORE (not "more than 183") in any twelve-month period: (a) an individual present 183+ days AND more than 50% of the enterprise's gross active business revenues derived from services performed there by that individual — the revenue conjunct is mandatory; or (b) services provided 183+ days on the same or connected project for residents of, or PEs in, the other State. Duration alone never suffices under limb (a).
compiled value: 183
