Working

… in Canada

A work visa allows you to combine three objectives:

• Explore Canada
• Legally work and live in Canada  (includes social insurance)
• Set stage and gain advantage for future immigration to Canada (if so desired)

Of course, working in Canada is not as simple as it may seem at first look. As in many other countries, a person can’t just travel to another country, knock on the door of a potential employer and expect to be hired. That strategy won’t work even if the company is looking for people to hire. Even in Canada, there are rules and regulations set out by the government. That means, that on one hand many qualified professionals may be needed, but the potential employees must be allowed to work in Canada. The potential employer has to fulfill certain requirements as well. GO KANADA will provide support for the employee as well as the potential employer (services).

If your qualifications and work experience are in the “wanted occupations” list, please fill out the questionnaire and write “I want to apply for a temporary work permit” in the “Applicant Objectives” section. You will receive further instruction on how to get a temporary work visa in Canada.
