Work Permit and LMIA

Work Permit and LIMA

A Canadian work permit is the permission to take a job within Canada if you are from a foreign country. You usually need a work permit to work in Canada. In some cases, you can work without a permit or job offer in Canada.

No matter where you apply, you must:

prove to an officer that you will leave Canada when your work permit expires,
show that you have enough money to take care of yourself and your family members during your stay in Canada and to return home
obey the law and have no record of criminal activity (we may ask you to give us a police clearance certificate)
not be a danger to Canada’s security
be in good health and have a medical exam, if needed
not plan to work for an employer listed with the status “ineligible” on the list of employers who failed to comply with the conditions
not plan to work for an employer who, on a regular basis, offers striptease, erotic dance, escort services or erotic massages
give the officer any other documents they ask for to prove you can enter the country
