Hi, I'm a civil engineer from Turkey. I've got a job offer from a canadian construction company. The first mail came from Jooble via a canadian staffing agency. Then the main company contacted me for the interview. There was one interview on the phone with the manager which included techincal engineering questions too, then continued with online aptitude tests. This process took 1-2 weeks and now they offered me a job position.

The contract includes the company's full name and Registery ID. Salary is good and they offer accommodation too. But there is a article in the contract as:

""xxx will not cover any expenses such as LMIA (labour market impact assessment),
governmental visa fees, biometric fees, medical report fees, any translation or notary fees and transport
costs upfront. Employee will be issued a refund of the expenses he makes once he starts his employment
in Canada."

I've searched their registery ID from the below link and the company name showed up. It matched.



After all, they gave me two ways to proceed. One of them was continuing with PR but this is more risky, time and money consuming at the moment for me. Other way was temporary work permit with LMIA document. I’ve been reading about job scams, so I’m a bit worried. The company have a deadline for starting time and I have nearly 2 months for the visa approval, so I chose the second option. But they wanted immediately 1390$ via some payment link as a "security deposit" for the LMIA process. Again, they said it will be refunded when the employment starts.

Right now am in a middle point of a scam or giving up a good opportunity because of my concerns. Can someone help me how to be sure about this situation? If you need any further information please ask, thanks in advance.

This sounds very likely to be a scam. Legitimate Canadian employers don’t ask for large upfront payments like a “security deposit” for LMIA or visa fees through payment links. Be very careful and do not send any money.
