Temporary Resident Permits

Visitor Visa

If you are not a citizen of Canada, your plans to visit may be impeded if you do not have a visitor visa. The application process for a visitor visa can often be complicated.

NORTH-AM offers several strategies for obtaining a visitor visa 

• Participation in organized tours or trips for experienced travelers 
• Invitation from family or friends to visit 
  Invitation from Canadian companies or to participate in business tours 
• Attendance at professional seminars, conferences, and exhibitions 
• Enrollment in short-term language courses (up to 6 months) to improve English skills 
• Attendance at summer or winter camps for children 

The issuance of a visitor visa is at the discretion of the Canadian embassy in the applicant’s country of residence or citizenship. This decision is based on several factors, including the applicant’s financial situation, employment status in their country of residence, and the immigration officer’s confidence that the applicant will return to their home country at the end of their visit and not overstay in Canada illegally.

Properly selecting the appropriate strategy and submitting the necessary documents can increase the chances of a visitor visa being approved.

Work Visa

The Canadian government is actively seeking to attract foreign specialists with the necessary skills to immigrate to Canada permanently in order to fill critical shortages in the job market across the country.

Similar to other countries, Canada prioritizes the well-being of its citizens and permanent residents. As a result, Canadian companies that wish to hire foreign workers must meet certain requirements as set out by reforms implemented in 2016. These requirements include:

• Make the maximum effort to fill the position with a Canada resident 
• Submit an application for hiring the foreign specialist to the Ministry of Labour 
• Pay a fee of $1,000 CAD for each foreign employee

Due to recent reforms, employers only hire a foreign worker when it is necessary.

There are many industries in the country that are desperately looking to fill vacancies such as:

• Qualified specialists 
• Truck drivers 
• Low-skilled workers
• General laborers
• Nannies
