  • The IMP allows foreign workers to obtain a work permit without the need for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). It includes categories such as Free Trade Agreements (for citizens of Mexico, Peru, Chile, Colombia, Panama, and the USA under specific treaties) and the Francophone Mobility Program (for French speakers outside Quebec).

  • If you are from Chile, Costa Rica, Spain, Portugal, or Italy, you may be eligible for the International Experience Canada (IEC) program. It offers streams such as Working Holiday, Young Professionals, or International Co-op for you to experience Canada temporarily.

  • A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that a Canadian employer needs to obtain to demonstrate that there are no Canadian citizens or permanent residents available to fill a position, justifying the hiring of a foreign worker. It is a key requirement for many work permits under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program.

  • Our service focuses on managing your work permit application once you have a job offer. While we are not a recruitment agency, we can offer guidance on how to prepare your profile and where to look for job opportunities that qualify for these programs.

  • Express Entry is Canada's main online system for managing applications from skilled workers. It is based on a points system (CRS) that evaluates factors such as age, education, work experience, and language proficiency. If your profile is competitive, you may receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.

  • Yes, having a strong command of French (in addition to English) can grant you significant additional points in Express Entry. It also opens the door to specific streams for French speakers, which often have lower CRS point thresholds, increasing your chances of receiving an invitation.

  • PNPs are programs that allow Canadian provinces and territories to nominate candidates for permanent residence who have the skills and work experience their economies need. We identify the PNP that best fits your profile and guide you through the nomination process.

  • Yes, the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot is an excellent option. This program seeks to attract skilled workers to smaller communities and often requires a job offer from an employer in one of these participating communities to obtain permanent residence.

  • You will need a letter of acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in Canada, proof that you have sufficient funds to cover your tuition and living expenses, and you must satisfy an immigration officer that you will leave the country at the end of your studies, among other requirements. We advise you throughout the entire process.

  • Yes, in most cases. If your Study Permit is for a full-time academic program at a DLI, you can work up to 20 hours per week during the academic term and full-time during scheduled breaks. Your study permit will state if you are authorized to work.

  • The PGWP is an open work permit that graduates of eligible programs in Canada can apply for. It is crucial because it allows international students to gain valuable Canadian work experience after their studies, which is a key factor for many permanent residence pathways.

  • Although our core service is study permit management, we offer guidance on different types of programs (academic, language courses, CO-OP) and inform you how your choice of institution and program can influence your eligibility for a PGWP and future permanent residence pathways.
