Work Visa from Vietnam to Canada
- Foreigners applying for this type of visa can take up paid employment in Canada.
- Before you are granted this visa, you must show proof of being employed by a company in Canada.
- An employment letter from your employer in Canada would be requested. The letter must have the address of the company, the position you have been employed and the duration of your visit.
- The job offer you have been given must be approved by the Canadian government through the Labour Market Impact Analysis Process before you can be given a work visa.
- Working in Canada on a temporary basis requires you to have a work permit.
- Before one is granted a Temporary work permit, an offer of employment from a Canadian employer is usually required.
- The foreign worker's country of citizenship is considered, which means a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) may also be needed for entry.
- An intending Canadian employer who wishes to hire a temporary foreign worker may need to apply for and be granted a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)by ESDC.
- The ESDC will grant a positive LMIA if it is satisfied that no Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to do the job.
- Work Permits may be issued by Canadian immigration officials without the LMIA requirement in a limited number of situations.
- A Temporary Work Permit may be issued for a period of time ranging from a few days to a few years.
- Intending employers are required to apply for government permission to hire outside Canada. Once this permission has been granted, the designated employee must apply for and receive his or her Work Permit.
- You must have a good command of the English language before applying for this visa.
- Minors must have a letter of consent signed by both their parents.
- Receipt of paid visa application fees should be presented.
