Visitors who are currently in Canada and have a valid job offer will be able to apply for an employer-specific work permit and, if approved, receive the permit without having to leave the country, thanks to a new public policy announced today by the Honourable Marco E.L. Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship. This temporary policy change takes effect immediately and will benefit employers in Canada who continue to face difficulties finding the workers they need, as well as temporary residents who would like to contribute their labour and skills to Canada’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, temporary residents who remained in Canada were encouraged to maintain valid legal status. With air travel limited around the world, some visitors to Canada have been unable to leave, while some foreign workers had to change their status to visitor because their work permit was expiring and they didn’t have a job offer to be able to apply for a new work permit. Some employers in Canada have also faced ongoing labour and skills shortages throughout this period, including those who provide important goods and services that Canadians rely on. To be eligible, an applicant looking to benefit from this temporary public policy must have valid status in Canada as a visitor on August 24, 2020 and remain in Canada have a job offer submit an application for an employer-specific work permit that is supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or an LMIA-exempt offer of employment, no later than March 31, 2021 meet all other standard admissibility criteria This temporary public policy also provides the opportunity for applicants who meet these criteria and who had a valid work permit in the past 12 months to begin working for their new employer before their work permit application has been fully approved. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ________________________________ #visapaper #visaservices #travelphotography #travelguides #repost #instablog9ja #canadaembassy #canadavisaagents #canadavisaexpert #canadavisa #canada #canadavisanigeria #canadaembassynigeria #vfsglobal #vfsnigeria #vfsglobal #canadawork #canadaworkpermit (at Lagos City Mall, Onikan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUpoaBnhM7/?igshid=1p7nanfvs44g7
