Canada Work Permits
Canada work permits are issued under the Temporary
Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) by Canada immigration and Citizenship.
The TFWP has four streams: high-skilled workers,
low-skilled workers, the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program, and the Live-In
Caregiver Program.
The Canadian work permit is divided into two which
include are the “open work permits” and “employer-specific work permits.” With
an open work permit, an applicant can work for any employer, but an
employer-specific work permit allows the applicant to work for only one
employer.
It is required that you already have a job offer before
applying for a work permit, although in some cases, you can apply for a work
permit without a job offer.
For you to apply for a work permit in Canada, you would
have to apply for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from Employment and
Social Development Canada (ESDC), as this is the most used approach. It would
then be the duty of the Canadian employer to undertake domestic recruitment
efforts and agrees that no Canadian permanent residents or citizens are
qualified for the position at hand. After a positive LMIA has been issued to
the applicant, they can go ahead to apply for a work permit
