Quote - Work Permits

To apply for a work permit, most candidates will require a Canadian job offer supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). There are some exceptions to this requirement, where foreign workers can apply for a work permit without an LMIA or a job offer.

​

You can apply for an open work permit (work permit without a job offer) if you fall under one of these categories:

• Spouse or common-law partner of:

  • Employer-specific work permit (LMIA or LMIA-exempt)​ holder

  • Bridging open work permit (BOWP) holder

  • Post-graduation work permit holder

  • Study permit holder

  • Working holiday work permit holder

  • Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) work permit holder

  • Provincial Nominees

  • Quebec selection certificate (CSQ) holder

• Working holiday participants

​

Please book a consultation if you're not sure which type of work permit you should apply for. Consultations can be booked here.

​

Candidates who qualify to apply for a work permit must also meet the following eligibility requirements:

• Demonstrate their intent to leave once their work authorization expires; and

• Prove they have sufficient funds to support themselves and their family in Canada and to return home; and

• Are not criminally or medically inadmissible to Canada; and

• Plan to work with an eligible employer; and

• Can provide any requested documents that may prove their eligibility to enter Canada
