Work Permit
A Canadian work permit is the permission to take a job within Canada if you are from a foreign country. You usually need a work permit to work in Canada. The scarcity of manpower showcases the availability of vacancies in Canada for Skilled and non-skilled labor to migrate on the work permit programs. A foreign national can work and live in Canada with a valid job offer and LMIA, which allows them to work in the field of occupations suitable to their profiles.
General Eligibility Requirements
- No matter where you apply, you must:
- prove to an officer that you will leave Canada when your work permit expires,
