Canada work permits also known as work visas grant overseas residents the right to employment in the country. Once you obtain this visa, you will be allowed to work in Canada. The work permit in Canada is granted on the base of having a job offer for a specific occupation and employer.

Delays are usually caused by the lack of a medical exam, or a job offer from a Canadian employer. The workload of the particular migration office should also be taken into consideration. Visa First has been through the process hundreds of times, so our migration agents know how to handle your application so that it’s processed in the fastest possible time.
