Work Permits For Canada

  

 

Work Permit Applications

Individuals who are not Canadian or permanent resident of Canada and wishing to work in Canada require a work permit. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. Contact our office to find out if you require a work permit to work in Canada. A Canada Work Permit is only issued once an offer of employment has been made. A Work Permit is not an employment contract but, is a document that is issued by Citizenship and Immigration Canada for the purpose of allowing an individual to work in Canada to fill a labour shortage, and to support economic growth in Canada.

A work permit is issued when a work permit application is accepted. More often than not, work permits are employer specific and cannot be used to work in another company. If a foreign national employment is terminated, the foreign national must apply for a new Work Permit in order to work in a new position. However sometimes, an open work permit can be obtained by a foreign national. An open Work Permit allows a foreign national to work in any position, and for any employer in Canada.

 

Canada Visitor Visa

  

 

Temporary Resident Visas Application

Temporary Resident Visas allow foreign nationals to enter Canada temporarily for either pleasure (normally tourist) or business visits. Some foreign national do not require a Temporary Resident Visa if they are citizen from an exempt country. If a foreign national is not a citizen from an exempt country, that person must apply to obtain a Temporary Resident Visa before entering Canada. Spouses and dependents of those who are temporarily residing in Canada might also be required to obtain a Temporary Resident Visa, depending on their country of origin.

If a foreign national who has a Temporary Resident Visa while in Canada wish to work, that person must obtain a work permit. The foreign national can then apply for a work permit from a Canadian Consulate, Embassy or High Commission abroad.

There are three types (3) of Temporary Resident Visas:

• Single Entry Visa– this allows the foreign national only one entry into Canada;

• Multiple Entry Visa– this allows the foreign national unlimited entry into Canada pending the validity of the Visa; and

• Transit Visa– this allows entry to Canada for foreign nationals who are traveling and who’s flight or bus enter Canada for less that forty-eight (48) hours, but who’s country of origin is one that requires a visa.
