Canada Work Permits
A work permit is the most common first step into Canada's labour market. Choosing the right category — and preparing an application IRCC can approve the first time — makes the difference between working in months and waiting for years.
Employer-specific work permits
Tied to a single Canadian employer, role, and location. Most require the employer to obtain a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) proving no Canadian was available for the role. We guide both applicants and employers through the LMIA and permit stages so the two applications support each other.
Open work permits
Open permits let you work for almost any employer in Canada. Common routes include spousal open work permits for partners of skilled workers and students, bridging open work permits for PR applicants, and permits under International Experience Canada.
