Secure a job offer from a Canadian employer who has demonstrated that they were unable to find a suitable Canadian citizen or permanent resident for the position.
A Canadian work permit allows foreign nationals to legally work in the country for a specific period. Most permits require a job offer. There are two main categories, Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) which requires a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from the employer, proving no Canadian could fill the role & International Mobility Program (IMP) LMIA-exempt in certain situations (e.g., international agreements, significant benefit to Canada, spouses of skilled workers/students).
