Work Visa

Click to Expand ▼

Overview

If you are looking to move quickly into Canada, and you don't have family or are a student, a work visa is probably your safest bet.
As the title indicates, Work Visas allow foreign nationals to reside in Canada to work. Under which you would apply under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) or the International Mobility Program (IMP). The nature of your work will determine your eligibility for permit types under either program.
A permit under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program requires a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMAI) that proves that there is a need for foreign workers for that line of work and that there are no local citizen workers available for the job.
A permit under the International Mobility Program does not require a positive LMAI but does require a submission of an employment offer in the employers portal.


There are two types of work Permits:
  • Employer Specific Work Permits
  • Open Work Permits

Open Work Permit

This type of work permit might be the most immediately appealing for quick entry into Canada, but is subject to specific eligibility requirements.

Employer Specific Work Permits

This type of work permit might be the most secure method for quick entry into Canada under a work visa if you can secure an offer of employment from a prospective employer.
