Hello everybody, I´m a shareholder in a very young Alberta corporation with business address in Edmonton that is considering the possibility of hiring a handful of construction cost estimators and surveyors from abroad to work in Alberta. We have some questions and concerns with regard to this...

This topic, like so many other topics and discussions on this Forum, are extremely interesting and enriching for anyone interested in the Canadian job market and the integration process of Non-Canadians. As a Canadian citizen working in Europe as a Career Guidance Counsellor at a state...

Please....?! Isn´t anyone in the mood to be a Good Samaritan? I could really use some help. This information is extremely important to me. I´ll maintain my fingers crossed. Thx once again.

If your ocupation is high-skilled of course you can take your wife and all your children along with you. If you´re occupation is semi-skilled or low-skilled than things are not so straightforward. Good luck.

I really could use some help from the more experienced members of the Forum and anyone TFW who has gone through the process. I have one simple (at least, apparently so) question: I´m a TFW from a visa-exempt country - Portugal. Sadly, it´s one of the very few Western European nations where a...

Hello, I´m writing this message upon request of a family member. He is Portuguese, therefore Visa-exempt. He has been living in Madeira for over 5 years, so no medical examination is required. An employer with a transportation/trucking business in the province of Alberta offered a job to my...

My aim is to obtain information for a Portuguese citizen currently working as a long haul truck driver. He signed a two year contract with the Yanke group of companies 2 months ago and is currently living in Regina, Saskatchewan. He wants to bring his wife ASAP and have her remain in Canada...

Pictures? Eerr, what pictures?? Wow! That was really great information on the medicals that released me from a state of angst. All of a sudden, things have become much clearer! Thanx a million Sir Amikety! It never occurred to me (and probably would never have) that Canadian doctors could...

That comes out to a total cost of 264$ CDN if my math is not wrong (no, I didn´t use a calculator ;)) . Cheaper than getting it done in Portugal - 237.50€ = 313$ CDN (almost). Amikety, the link you provide takes us to a list of doctors for examination outside Canada. When you mention DMP, ar...

Thank-you Wilson and Amikety for your tremendously helpful insight and information. The idea that they could be denied the WP just because the medical report was not performed in the country of origin did seem a little far-fetched and rather silly to me. If they prove they´re healthy, that´s all...

Please .... can someone post a reply ... comment ... make an assessment ... computergeel, Scylla, PMM and others where are you? :-[

Yes, that´s absolutely true. Not only Singapore, but at least Hong Kong as well. By that measure, Canadian laws are quite lax. According to this account, however, the man was in possession of 30 gr. of marijuana over 5 yrs. ago. In my view, if he has committed no ofence since then it makes...

Hello, I was told and taught and now preach and practice that generally people like to approach issues by way of narrative. That is, through the use of a story.... Jack and John are two honest, hard-working, experienced and highly qualified Portuguese welders. They´re having a tough time...

Thank you once again for your once again generous and informative contribution to this topic. This saves me a good deal of time since I know I don´t have to invest time searching for immigration laws and regulation that are province-specific. Just out of curiosity, why did the court never have...

OMG! All this hassle just because he was in possession of 30 grams of marijuana more than five years ago? Is Canada on planet Earth? Seems likes it´s easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than anyone with a minor offence making it to Canada in a reasonable period. In Portugal...

I found you´re comment so original ... at the same time so pure and naive . We´re all looking for friends and .. we all need friends. Fortunately, this is a great Forum with many wonderful members who provide tons of information gratuitously. I, for one, have learned a great deal ...

Thanx once again computergeek. Your generous and gratuitous advice and comments provide all of us with great information. God bless. How about provincial legislation or regulations? Do they exist in the area of immigration related issues? If so, do they complement, collide or override federal...

Thanx so much arisudu for recounting your "flagpoling" experience. It was extremely helpful and informative. However, seems like, at one moment, while back on the Canadian side, you were caught up in an atmosphere of suspense and uncertainty. Fortunately, all went well. Good luck to you. Hope...

That´s why Canadian TFW recruitment agencies are irreplaceable or inescapeable.They scavenge the work terrain looking for Canadian companies in need of TFW and also of someone to take care of the paperwork, particularly applying for, obtaining and getting the names on the LMO. Although many...
