Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How long does it take to process a Canadian work permit?
Processing times vary by country and work permit type. On average, it takes 8 to 16 weeks. We’ll help ensure all your documents are in order for a faster outcome.
Do I need a job offer to apply for a work permit?
Yes, most work permits require a valid job offer from a Canadian employer. However, some programs (like open work permits) do not. We’ll help you understand your options
Can I bring my spouse and children with me?
Yes, in many cases your spouse can apply for an open work permit, and your children can attend school in Canada. We can help you apply for family permits alongside yours.
What is an LMIA, and do I need one?
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document showing that a Canadian employer couldn’t find a Canadian to fill the job. Not all permits require an LMIA – we’ll determine if it applies to your situation.
Can a work permit lead to permanent residency?
Absolutely. Work experience gained in Canada can help you qualify for programs like Express Entry, Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), or the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). We can plan a strategy for your transition to PR.
