Temporary Work Permit

STporches specializes in facilitating the acquisition of temporary work permits for individuals seeking employment opportunities in Canada. Every Year, Canada welcomes over 150,000 foreign workers to fill temporary roles, helping local employers in addressing skill shortages where qualified Canadian citizens or permanent residents are unavailable.
To obtain a temporary work permit, applicants must secure a job offer from a Canadian employer who has received approval to hire foreign workers. This approval is obtained through a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) process, overseen by Service Canada. The LMIA ensures that the job offer meets with Canadian labor market needs and does not stop opportunities for Canadian citizens or permanent residents.
Upon receiving LMIA, applicants must submit their temporary work permit application before the LMIA expiry date. STporches not only assists applicants with their permit applications but also collaborates with employers to secure the necessary approvals for hiring foreign workers.
Temporary work permits are issued for a specific duration and tied to a particular employer. They are not transferable, requiring a new permit if the holder wishes to change employers in Canada. Additionally, open work permits may be available for spouses or common-law partners of permit holders, with eligibility criteria outlined by immigration authorities.
Processing times for temporary work permits vary based on the nature of the employment and the application location. Occupations in demand include roles such as:
1. Long Haul Truck Drivers
2. Mechanics
3. CNC Machinists
4. Early Childhood Educators, among others.
Moreover, temporary work permit holders can explore to permanent residency while in Canada, including options under the Federal Skilled Worker category, Provincial Nominee Programs, or the Canadian Experience Class.
