Work Permit Support for Employees

What This Service Covers

Work permits allow foreign nationals to work in Canada for a specified employer and period. Employer-specific permits usually require a positive LMIA or an LMIA-exempt job offer. The application involves both employer documentation (LMIA, job offer letter, employment contract) and the worker's personal application (passport, qualifications, medical exams, police certificates).

When employers hire foreign workers, coordinating these two sides is critical. A complete application must align employer commitments with the worker's eligibility. This service helps employers support their employees through the process so applications are complete, consistent, and well-prepared for IRCC review.
