Study Permit

Canada has a world class education system that attracts many international students every year. The educational climate in Canada is excellent, with numerous top-quality programs covering a wide range of subjects and an innovative economy that welcomes international students. Therefore, a study permit and a study visa are required for most foreign students to study in Canada.

Here are a few instances:

Applicants must be accepted by a recognized institution of higher education in Canada. The government of Canada has approved these institutions as international student-accepting institutions. Upon receiving your letter of acceptance, you will need to obtain a study permit, which permits you to stay in Canada while you are studying.

Study permits are not always required for studying in Canada.

Work Permit

Workers from outside Canada who wish to work in Canada on a temporary basis are usually required to obtain a work permit. As well as creating jobs and providing economic growth for Canadians, foreign workers admitted to Canada contribute to job creation. Generally speaking, foreign skilled workers are required to have an offer of employment from an employer in Canada before being able to work temporarily in Canada. To ensure that foreign workers do not negatively affect employment opportunities for Canadian citizens and permanent residents, immigration authorities in Canada work with the Department of Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) to ensure that Canadians have priority at available jobs. As a result, most foreign workers in Canada must have an LMIA and work permit

Work permits can be divided into two types:

Open Work Permit:

Open Work Permits are available to individuals if the following circumstances apply:

• If you are being abused in the course of your Canadian job and have a work permit that is employer specific
• Having graduated from a designated institution of learning as an international student.
• Applying to become a permanent resident of Canada.
• A student who no longer has the financial means to pay for their education (destitute).
• Spouses or partners of skilled workers or international students.

Employer Specific Work Permit

It is common for you to require a Labour Market Impact Assessment before working for a specific employer. If the LMIA is positive, it will demonstrate that the business needs a foreign worker. Furthermore, the report would show there are no Canadians or permanent residents qualified to take on the job.

Visitor Visa

Visitors come to Canada every year to view the natural beauty and to visit friends and family. A visitor's visa is required by foreign nationals wishing to travel through or into Canada. It depends on your citizenship whether or not you need a temporary resident visa. To transit through or fly to Canada if you do not need a visa, you will need an electronic travel authorization (eTA) except for US citizens and people with valid Canadian visas.

This program requires visitors to Canada to meet the following requirements :

• Travel documents and passports must be valid.
• Health of the applicant must be positive.
• Criminal background checks are required for admission to Canada.
• An Immigration office should be able to verify the applicant's intention to depart Canada at the end of their visit.
