Work Permits


You can apply for a Temporary Visa!


Every year, over 100,000 foreign workers enter Canada, the US and Britain to work temporarily in jobs that help employers in these countries address skill shortages. A work permit is needed for most temporary jobs and Summit Immigration Consulting Group provides the services that enable our clients to attain this document which is mandatory for you to have in order to gain employment.

In Canada your employer helps determine if you are eligible and they may need to get a labour market opinion from Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC). A labour market opinion confirms that the employer can fill the job with a foreign worker.

A work permit does not allow you to live in Canada permanently. To work in Canada, you must meet the general requirements for entering the country and for staying here, in addition to those for getting a work permit. This means you may need a temporary resident visa. Summit Immigration Consulting Group assists with this entire process and also provides job referrals and employment resources that will be useful in attaining work.

Approved Work PermitsTo live here permanently, you must qualify under an immigration category. If you want your spouse or common–law partner and your dependent children to come with you to Canada, they must apply to do so. Additionally your employer helps determine if you are eligible. Your employer may need to get a labour market opinion from Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC).

If authorization is granted to work in Canada, your accompanying family members may also be able to work here by virtue of the permit you have obtained yourself. No other authorization is required. Open work permits allow them to work in any job with any employer. An open work permit also means that they may be hired without the employer having to obtain a labor market opinion (the normal authorization required). Certain jobs may require medical checks or licensing from professional organizations so consult with us and we can assist you with any concerns that you have.
