Canada Work Permit For A Brother
Q: My brother wants to immigrate to Canada. His occupation is not one in demand. If I get him a job offer does it help? Does the job offer need to be in an occupation that is in demand? What does the employer need to do?
A: Under the new rules, an applicant must have at least one year of work experience in one of the 38 occupations in demand. If they do, then no job offer is required. If they do not, then a job offer is will render then eligible to file the application. The job offer does not need to be one of the 38 occupations. It can be any skilled occupation.
The employer must be a company that has been in existence for at least one year and has been paying taxes for at least one employee. Family businesses are eligible and in many cases this is a good avenue to bring over relatives for Canadians who have restaurants or convenience stores that usually require trusted employees.
