Personal services income

Obtaining work through an agency: unrelated clients test

To pass the unrelated clients test, your income must be produced from 2 or more clients who are not related or connected with each other. The work must be obtained by making offers to the public or a section of the public.

If your business obtains work by registering with an agency, it is not making offers to the public under the unrelated clients test.
