We provide essential services for those seeking to gain work experience in Canada. We guide you through various legal avenues to work in Canada, assisting with online interviews, job placement, LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment), and work permit. If desired, we can also offer customized planning for future permanent residency.


    • Spouse Open Work Permit
    • LMIA Closed Work Permit
    • Work Permit (LMIA X)
    • Not Applicable
  • • Spouse Open Work Permit

    The Spouse Open Work Permit allows spouses or common-law partners of eligible visa holders to work in Canada without being tied to a specific employer. To apply, the principal applicant must hold a valid visa, such as an LMIA Work Permit, Study Permit, or PGWP.

    Proof of relationship, such as a marriage certificate or recognized cohabitation document, is required, along with additional documents like the principal applicant’s visa copy, employment verification, and passport details.

    • Closed Work Permit

    A Closed Work Permit restricts employment to a specific employer in Canada. To obtain this permit, the employer must secure an LMIA, demonstrating the need to hire a foreign worker. The permit specifies the job, location, and conditions of employment. Key points include:

    • Restricted to one employer
    • Requires an employment contract and LMIA from the employer
    • Specifies work location and conditions

    ▶ LMIA(Labour Market Impact Assessment)

    LMIA assesses the impact of hiring foreign workers on the Canadian labor market, which employers must obtain before hiring.
