How do I get past the lack of a Canadian business address on my T2125 as a self-employed Non-resident?

I am a non-resident (canadian citizen though) who worked several contracts in Canada in 2018 as an independent contractor (ie self-employed). I am running into an issue while filling out my T2125 - I don't have a canadian "business" address and I cannot add my foreign address (my residence and the closest thing I have to a business address). How can I get around this?

You will need to enter in a Canadian address of some sort, at least of Province and Postal Code of the location where your Self-Employment income was earned.

However, if you are filing as a Non-Resident and will printing and mailing your return as you cannot NetFile, you can change the address when you print out the actual return to mail in to CRA.
