Hi there fellow members,
I saw a thread about this from about 4 years ago here but wanted to ask again to make sure the information is still relevant.
My husband and I are looking at having him immigrate to Canada. We are thinking of doing the marriage visa/sponsor spouse option. Currently, he works for an IT company with the UK and has the option to remain employed with them and work remotely from within Canada.
This company is based in the UK and pays him as such. Will he still need to get a work permit to work within Canada?
In the thread I read from a while ago, they were saying that he wouldn't because he is not competing with the Canadian job market and is not working for any Canadians or getting paid by any Canadians. Is this still true? If not, what will he need?
Please let me know if you need any more information from me! Thank you!
