Apply For A Work Permit in Canada
Working in Canada is a great way to immerse yourself in Canadian culture and determine if a future in Canada is best for you and your family. Foreign workers who have spent time working in Canada have many different options to apply for permanent residence in Canada.
Temporary foreign workers require a work permit in order to work legally in Canada.
There are three main categories of Canadian work permit:
- Open work permits
- LMIA based work permits
- LMIA exempt work permits.
Within each of these categories, there are numerous subcategories and each has its own set of work permit requirements that must be met in order for the work permit to be approved by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
There are various rules respecting where you can apply for a work permit, depending on the type of permit you are seeking. Some applications can only be submitted at a visa office overseas, some can be requested from Canada Border Services Agency as a Canadian port of entry, and certain work permit applications can only be made from inside Canada.
How to Renew or Extend a Work Permit Canada
Many types of Canadian work permit can be renewed or extended before the expiry date, in order that you can continue to work in Canada until either your work project is finished or you qualify as a permanent resident. In most cases, you can apply online to extend your work permit while you are inside Canada, and you will benefit from maintained status that allows you to remain legally working until you receive a decision on your new work permit application from IRCC. The legalities of where to apply for which type of work permit and who receives maintained status can be complicated, so we recommend that you consult with an expert to ensure that you get it right according to your specific situation.
