Canadian work permit and PR pathways

Fake LMIAs and bought job offers are one of the biggest scams hitting Punjabi families — every route we handle starts with a verified employer and a confirmed, genuine offer.

1

LMIA-backed employer work permit

Your Canadian employer applies for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) to show they genuinely need a foreign worker. We verify that the LMIA is real and the employer is legitimate before an offer reaches you — a fake or 'purchased' LMIA is a serious immigration offence.

2

LMIA-exempt work permits (CUSMA/intra-company)

Certain categories — professionals under CUSMA (the Canada–US–Mexico Agreement), intra-company transfers and others — do not require an LMIA. We assess whether you qualify and handle the correct permit category.

3

Express Entry (federal skilled streams)

Canada's points-based permanent residence system covering the Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trades and Canadian Experience Class programs. We calculate your honest CRS score and tell you whether current invitation rounds are realistic for your profile.

4

Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP)

Each province targets specific occupations and skills gaps. A provincial nomination adds 600 CRS points, effectively guaranteeing an Express Entry invitation. We match your occupation to the provinces and streams where you are most competitive.

5

Spouse open work permit

On many eligible skilled work permits and Express Entry profiles, your spouse or common-law partner can obtain an open work permit — the right to work for any Canadian employer. We confirm eligibility for your specific situation.

6

Rural and agri-food pathways

Canada has specific streams for agriculture, agri-food processing and rural communities — sectors where Punjabi experience is genuinely valued. We handle these alongside mainstream routes.

Eligibility

What it takes to qualify for a Canadian work permit

Eligibility depends on your route — we check every factor honestly and tell you where you stand before you commit anything.

1

A genuine job offer and confirmed LMIA (where required)

For LMIA-based permits, your employer must have a valid, verifiable LMIA from Employment and Social Development Canada. We check the LMIA number and employer registration before any offer is presented to you. A fake LMIA can result in inadmissibility.

2

CRS score and Express Entry eligibility

Express Entry is competitive — current invitation rounds have required CRS scores that vary by draw and program. We calculate your honest score based on age, education, English/French, experience and whether you have a provincial nomination, and we tell you plainly whether it is enough right now.

3

Language: English or French

IELTS (General Training), CELPIP or TEF scores are required for most Canadian immigration streams. Minimum bands differ by program. We tell you the exact score your target route requires.

4

Educational credential assessment (ECA)

Foreign degrees and diplomas must be assessed by a Designated Credential Recognition Organisation (e.g. WES) for most Express Entry streams. We guide you through the correct organisation and the documents required.

How it works

From your first call to working in Canada

One dedicated case manager handles your file from employer verification to your arrival — you are never passed from person to person.

1

Free eligibility check and CRS calculation

We assess your profile across all Canadian routes — LMIA work permit, Express Entry and relevant PNP streams — and give you an honest read on where you stand and which pathway is most realistic for you right now.

2

LMIA and employer verification

For LMIA-based routes, we confirm the employer's registration, the LMIA number and the role before you proceed. This single step protects you from the fake-LMIA scam that has cost Punjabi families crores.

3

Profile building and credential assessment

We guide your ECA, IELTS preparation, PNP stream selection and Express Entry profile creation — fixing any gaps before your profile goes live.

4

Work permit or PR application filing

We prepare and submit your application to IRCC with a complete, accurate document set — handling all supporting forms, employer documents and any additional requests.

5

Decision, pre-arrival and family

Once approved, we brief you on entry requirements, what to carry and first-week essentials. Spouse open work permit and dependent children's applications are planned alongside yours where eligible.

Beware fake LMIAs

Genuine LMIAs only — never bought or arranged

Fake LMIAs and 'sold' job offers are one of the largest and most damaging scams targeting Punjabi families seeking Canada work permits. Families pay lakhs for an offer letter that turns out to be fabricated — and the consequences go beyond losing money: a misrepresentation finding can lead to a multi-year ban and permanent damage to your immigration history.

We work only with genuine, verifiable Canadian employers and real Labour Market Impact Assessments that can be confirmed through official government records. If an offer cannot be verified, it never reaches you. We would rather lose a client than put your family's future at risk.

  • Honest CRS score and PNP competitiveness — no inflated expectations

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about Canada

A genuine LMIA is issued by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and has a unique confirmation number. The employer's business registration can also be independently verified. We check both before presenting any offer to you. If someone is offering you a 'Canadian LMIA job' for an upfront fee without being able to share a verifiable confirmation number, that is almost certainly a scam — walk away and contact us for a free review.

Express Entry is Canada's federal system for selecting skilled workers for permanent residence. Your Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score is based on age, education, English/French proficiency, Canadian work experience and other factors. IRCC holds regular invitation draws and invites the highest-scoring candidates. We calculate your honest CRS score and tell you whether current draw thresholds make your profile competitive right now.

Each province runs its own immigration streams targeting specific occupations needed locally. If you receive a provincial nomination, you get an additional 600 CRS points in Express Entry — effectively guaranteeing an invitation to apply for permanent residence. We assess which provinces and streams match your occupation and experience, and guide the nomination application.

On many LMIA-based work permits and Express Entry profiles, your spouse or common-law partner can apply for an open work permit — authorising them to work for any Canadian employer. Eligibility depends on the specific permit category and your NOC code. We confirm your spouse's eligibility at the outset and plan both applications together.

For LMIA-based work permits, there is no strict federal English test requirement, though employers typically expect functional English. For Express Entry and most PNP streams, an IELTS General Training score (or CELPIP equivalent) is required, with minimum bands varying by program. We tell you the exact requirement for your specific route.
