Work Permits
Closed Work Permits
Closed work permits only allow you to work for a specific employer.
For many, this means the Canadian employment requires Labor Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). A positive LMIA demonstrates that there were no qualifying candidates in Canada for the job - this means the Canadian employer can now hire foreign workers.
Without a positive LMIA, the employer will not be able to offer you a job, even if you are fully qualified.
Open Work Permits
Open work permits allows you the freedom to work almost anywhere in Canada. You do not need an LMIA or a job offer.
​
Examples of Open Work Permit Applicants:
​
-
Permanent Resident Applicants​​​
-
Spouse of Worker or Student
-
International Students
