Who This Is For

The Work Permit route is for individuals with a confirmed job offer from a Canadian employer willing to support their application. Common situations include:

• Skilled worker positions supported by an LMIA
• Intra-company transfers within multinational employers
• LMIA-exempt roles under international agreements
• Seasonal or temporary work assignments
• Renewals or extensions of an existing work permit

Documents You'll Typically Need

Requirements vary by occupation and whether an LMIA is needed, but generally include:

• ✓ Valid passport, valid for your intended work period
• ✓ Signed job offer letter or employment contract
• ✓ Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), or proof of LMIA exemption
• ✓ Proof of relevant qualifications or skills for the role
• ✓ Proof of funds, where required
• ✓ Criminal record certificate, if requested
• ✓ Medical examination results, if requested
