Business Immigration
Business Immigration
Canada welcomes businessmen and women from all over the world, especially business immigrants who have a solid background in business, sufficient financial assets to establish themselves, and a demonstrated enthusiasm for engaging in business after landing in Canada.
Business Visitor Visas
Every year, thousands of international business people come to Canada to do business with Canadian companies. As a business visitor you do not require a work permit. At Akrami and Associates, we have many years of experience bringing business visitors to Canada.
Work Permits
Eligible foreign workers who wish to work temporarily in Canada can apply for a temporary work permit.
Intra-Company Transfers
Canada allows for the transfer of certain employees to freely transfer to the Canadian branch, subsidiary or affiliate of an international company, without obtaining a Labour Market Opinion (LMO).
Labour Market Opinion
Many jobs in Canada first require a Positive Labour Market Opinion.
NAFTA Work Permits
The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) allows qualified American and Mexican professionals to work in Canada without possibly needing to obtain a Labour Market Opinion.
Open Spousal Work Permits
There are many ways where a foreign national can obtain a work permit for their spouse. A spouse of a foreign national can work temporarily in Canada.
Post-Graduate Work Permits
If you want to work in Canada after you graduate, you must apply for a work permit under the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program (PGWPP). If you want to stay in Canada as a permanent resident after you graduate, there are a number of programs available, each with its own requirements.
