  • Canadian work permit applications can be done at
    a visa office in the foreign workers home
    country, or at a Canadian port of entry, which is
    usually an airport.

Securing a Job in Canada
  • Its important to note that looking for a job is
    not a part of our immigration services.

4
Regular Process of Application for Canada Work
Permit
  • Applicants must receive approval from Service
    Canada. Employers are required to demonstrate
    that they have made unsuccessful efforts to look
    for Canadian citizens or permanent residents to
    fill their workforce, such as by placing online
    and newspaper ads.

  • However, the standard process may not be
    followed if the job applied for is identified as
    an occupation under pressure.
  • This means that the occupation is considered to
    have a skills shortage and Canada is willing to
    have foreign workers work in the identified
    occupation.

Work Permits That May Not Require Service
Canada Approval
  • There may be applications for work permits in
    which approval from Service Canada is not
    required, such as the applications of
  • entrepreneurs,
  • intra-company transferees
  • foreign students
  • who finished their study in Canada, spouses of
    skilled workers who already have work permits,
    and individuals considered to bring certain
    benefits to Canada.
