Who Needs it?
All foreign nationals need a Canadian work Permit in order to work in Canada. It is valid for a specific time period and specified job.
In most cases also, before a Work Permit is issued by the federal government, the foreign worker needs to obtain a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment.
Due to the NAFTA agreement Canada has with USA and Mexico, nationals from these countries are excepted from LMIAs and Work Permits in some cases. In additions, foreigners can apply under various categories to enable them work in Canada without an positive LMIAs.
When you work with us, our firm ensures you meet the conditions of each category, and fulfill the requirements of the NAFTA as applying under the wrong category can result in a refusal of entry to Canada.
