Approved! Applied online with the embassy in Ottawa, Canada. It took one week. Self-employed remote worker and volunteer director of a small online non-profit. I provided a cover letter explaining my income stream and what I do, as well as letters from 2 clients and 1 colleague confirming we meet exclusively on Zoom, and 6 months of bank statements with client etransfers. They asked for further documentation including tax info for my company and a website or youtube channel where I promote my services.

I got lots of ideas from this group about what to provide. So just paying it forward here. Happy to answer any questions.
