Worker programs allow eligible individuals to come to Canada to work with the support of a Canadian employer and, where applicable, the required authorizations from Canadian authorities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

When a Canadian employer selects a candidate and provides a qualifying job offer, it may be possible to begin the process of obtaining an employer-specific work permit. This type of permit is generally issued for a period of 1 year and may, in certain circumstances, be renewed while in Canada.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Once the application is complete and all government requirements have been met, including the submission of supporting documents, biometrics, and a medical examination when required, the application is submitted for processing. If approved, the applicant receives a Port of Entry Letter of Introduction confirming their authorization to work in Canada.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Letter of Introduction must be presented to border officials upon arrival in Canada. This letter is not a work permit. The official work permit is issued by Canadian authorities at the port of entry when the individual is admitted to Canada.<\/p>

Your work permit will specify:<\/p>

\u2022 the type of work you are authorized to perform;
\u2022 the employer you are authorized to work for;
\u2022 the location where you may work;
\u2022 the validity period of the permit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
