IMMIGRATION TO CANADA

Working Temporarily in Canada

The definition of work as per Sec 2 of the IRPA regulations is "an activity for which wages are paid or commission is earned, or that is in direct competition with the activities if Canadian citizens or permanent residents in the Canadian labour market". Most temporary jobs require the applicant to obtain a work permit to Canada. The requirements depend on the occupation of the applicant and the work to be performed in Canada on the work permit. The most important aspect of the work permit is to browse through the National Occupation Classification of Canada, which lists the various occupations and education and employment requirements for each occupation, and to equate the responsibilities and duties of the position sought after with what the applicant is currently performing of has performed in the recent past. The link for the National Occupation classification is http://www23.hrdc-drhc.gc.ca/2001/e/generic/welcome.shtml. In most cases work permits must be applied from outside of Canada.

To apply for a work permit, the following documents are required;

1. Application form.

2. Applicant ability to meet the job requirement- past education and work experience documents etc.

3. Positive labour marker opinion [LMO] from HRSDC for the position [if required]. For jobs requiring labour market opinions, it is the employer in Canada who must obtain the same and send it to the applicant.

4. A job offer letter from the employer in Canada stating the requirements of the job [duties and responsibilities of the position], salary offered etc. It is that the employer pays the applicant prevailing wage rates. The updated wage rates are available of the Service Canada website.

5. Applicants who are applying outside their country of nationality must be able to provide proof of immigration.

Applicant must browse the website of Immigration Canada and locate the closest Canadian visa office to the applicant.

Extension and Change of Work Permits

The applicant must file for the extension of a work permit if their work in Canada is extended beyond the period of your previous work permit. This extension application must be filed before the expiry of the previous work permit.

If there is a change of employer after the applicant arrives in Canada, a new work permit must be obtained before the applicant works with the new employer.

The forms and more details on the same maybe obtained from one of our Guidance Counsellors.
