Can the applicant who has applied for permanent residence under the Skilled Worker Class concurrently apply for a temporary non-immigrant employment authorization?
Ans. The immigration officer will assess the present intention of the applicant and verify whether the applicant will leave Canada at the expiry of his visa. He will be required to demonstrate sufficient ties to his current country of residence. First, your employer has to file an application with the Canada Employment authorities inside Canada. It is only after the employment authorities have confirmed that the hiring in question will have a neutral affect on the local labor market that your application would be approved and forwarded to the Canadian High Commission for immigration assessment and processing. This is known as obtaining a positive “labor market opinion”. After this is done apply for the Visa.
