Start by separating the work-permit route
“Canada work visa” can describe several different immigration questions. Choose the route that matches the job offer, your current status and the purpose of the application before collecting documents. Kanan can help you understand the route and next steps; IRCC decides eligibility and applications.
Employer-specific work permit
Is there a genuine job offer with the required employer support?
This route is tied to the employer, job and conditions described in the application. Depending on the situation, the employer may need a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or an LMIA-exempt offer number. The offer and support documents need to match the actual role and current instructions.
Eligible open work permit
Do you fit a current open-work-permit category?
An open permit is not a general alternative to an employer-specific permit. It is available only to people in particular categories, such as some spouses or partners, graduates or permanent-residence applicants. The exact category and current eligibility matter before documents are prepared.
Study-to-work planning
Is studying first a realistic education decision—not a shortcut?
A Canadian study permit and a later work permit are separate applications. A study plan should make sense for your education, budget and career direction on its own. Future work-permit eligibility can change and should never be represented as guaranteed.
A job offer is not the same as work-permit approval
A job offer can be an important part of an employer-specific application, but it does not replace the immigration requirements. The applicant, employer, position and supporting records all need to fit the selected route. Be cautious of anyone who offers a job, an LMIA or an approval as a product.
What a useful route review checks
The review should compare the proposed job, your work history, qualifications, required licensing and the employer documents with the conditions of the specific work-permit route.
What responsible counselling does not do
Kanan does not sell jobs or LMIAs, create employer documents, hide facts in an application or promise a work permit. A missing prerequisite should be explained plainly before you spend money preparing a file.
Build evidence around the selected route
There is no reliable universal work-permit checklist. Prepare the document groups that apply to your actual situation, then confirm the final list against current IRCC requirements. All documents and explanations must be truthful and consistent.
Your identity and work history
- A valid passport and the identity or civil-status records relevant to your application.
- A clear employment timeline with experience letters, role descriptions and records that support the claimed work history.
- Education, trade, licence or professional-registration documents where the role or province requires them.
- Previous Canadian or international immigration documents, refusal letters and submitted forms where applicable.
The employer and job offer
- The genuine job offer and the details needed to identify the employer, position, pay, location and conditions.
- LMIA evidence or an LMIA-exempt offer number when the selected route requires it.
- Employer support material that is consistent with the role and the current work-permit instructions.
- A truthful explanation of how your experience, qualifications and any required licensing relate to the offered work.
Route-specific requirements
- The documents for the exact open-work-permit category, if one applies, rather than a generic open-permit checklist.
- Medical examination, biometrics, police certificates or other admissibility evidence when current instructions require them.
- Family information and proof of the relationship or status that creates eligibility for a spouse or partner route, where relevant.
- A final check against the current IRCC instructions before submission, because requirements and program measures can change.
Review a refusal before deciding to reapply
Resubmitting the same application with a new letter may not address the reason for refusal. A useful review begins with the earlier decision and checks whether the evidence, route and facts can genuinely change.
- 01Read the refusal letter and identify the stated concern without assuming a document was simply overlooked.
- 02Reconstruct the earlier application: forms, job offer, employer material, work history, qualifications and every supporting letter.
- 03Check whether the route, facts and available evidence can genuinely address the concern under current IRCC instructions.
- 04Decide whether to reapply, change the route or wait for a material change. A rewritten cover letter alone may not resolve a missing prerequisite.
