Employer work permits: more than one path

FTA permits, high-wage LMIAs, Global Talent Stream, and intra-company transfers. The route depends on the hire.

Canadian employers have more than one way to bring a worker in. Free-trade professional permits skip the labour-market assessment when citizenship and duties fit. High-wage LMIAs remain the ordinary labour-market stream. Global Talent Stream is one LMIA program among others. Intra-company transfers depend on the company’s structure.

We choose the route from passport, duties, and timing. Employers deal with the lawyer preparing the filing. Fees for each path are published.
