Hi friends ! in this video we are going to see about work permit
the Canadian work permit related information is very confusing and difficult to comprehend till now
what sort of works can i undertake leveraging the work permit?
since we may be defecit on PR points, study permit is too costly
there is a myth prevailing
until i was in India, that "if i get a job offer in Canada
I would shift to Canada, if someone has a company in Canada i would go to Canada
and start earning and lead a good life"
when this maybe true for some countries
like Dubai, Middle eastern countries, Malaysia, Singapore etc.,
to work as a driver, construction worker
even if we don't have experience we work there as a contract worker for some days
but that concept is not entertained in North American countries especially in US and Canada
if you are qualified in a particular field and if you are unique, only then you can get a work permit here
for ex, imagine i run a company here
registering a company is easy here
you just have to fill an application form online
So then i may roll out job offers to my friends,relatives asking them to apply for a visa and come to Canada
but that is not the case here
It has happened before
then Government started to introduce norms to allow only qualified people get work permits in Canada
So there are two things here
one, as a company they must satisfy some norms
second, as a foreign worker they must also satisfy certain criteria
only then they may get a work permit to enter Canada
For ex., If my company wants to hire a foreign worker
as a minimum requirement my company should have
5 permanent Canadian full time employees
and the company must atleast be 5 years old in the business
plus the company must have CAD $500,000 revenue/year
all these must be proven in the audit
these are the basic criteria to hire a foreign worker in my company
next is I have to prove the government that i am not able to fill that particular position with a Canadian
I have to go to the government job portals
and list my jobs there and must have conducted interviews there
stating i was not able to find a suitor for the particular position in Canada
but the person is available elsewhere for example in India, Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai and say i want to hire him
then they audit my company to see if my company is legit
and have the basic requirements and have applied through proper stream
then they check the employee's profile
to see if he has the said qualifications, post completing the back ground verification
and if both are ok then
they give LMIA(Labour Market Impact Assessment) to my company
then i send this LMIA to my foreign employee
and he must use that LMIA to get a Canadian work permit/visa and enter Canada
overall this process is tougher than getting a PR or a study permit
that's why when we are asked to help people get a job to enter Canada
our hands are tied because of the government's rules and regulations
but we get the doubt on some who enter Canada via a work permit
actually they get in for an onsite in an IT , construction companies etc.,
by the process called 'Intra-Company transfer'
between a Canadian company which may have a branch/partnership with an outsourced company in a foreign country
and they may have a skiller worker who is extremely skilled
to get in Canada via the 'Intra-Company transfer'
and that maybe a closed work permit, provisioning him to work only for that company for only 1 year
but they may extend it for more years and eventually have the chances of getting a PR and settling down in Canada
Hence this is the easiest solution if you want to get to Canada
or if your spouse has a study permit/PR in Canada then you may come to Canada on a dependent visa/ open work permit
but in general if you want to get work in Canada
since you don't have PR points / money to get a study visa, it is very difficult
In case, tells you that you have a job opportunity in Canada you can enter the same
dont believe them as getting a LMIA is very difficult
and must be proved that particular skilled person is not available in Canada
