If you are a business executive, senior management or a person with specialised talent, it is possible to obtain a Canadian work permit without going through the rigours of getting a positive LMIA opinion from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC). 

The Regulations 204 – 208 make provisions for industry executives and skilled tech professionals to obtain a Canadian work permit in an expedited manner. Work permit applications in this category are considered favourably on the justification that the resources have high human capital factors and that their engagement will bring significant benefit to Canada. 

Significant benefits may be economic, social or cultural. The benefit will be articulated properly in the Labour Market Benefits Plan submitted to the ESDC Canada on behalf of the employer. 

Business owners, senior managers and specialized talent are encouraged to speak with our in-house experts to discover what pathway is ideal for them and their businesses. 

From our experience, these interactions expedite the journey to Canadian citizenship.
