Hi All,

I am a US citizen currently working in Canada under a closed work permit under the NAFTA Computer System Analyst profession. I was networking around and realized my skill set (Voice Engineering) is a need and there are quite a few opportunities available. However I would need an open permit to apply.

My question is, is there a way for me to get an open work permit without sponsorship? I was speaking to someone and they said I can apply as an individual but I wasn't sure what the details were and how to go about getting started.

Thank you in advance!
 
Based on the information you have provided, you don't meet any of the criteria for qualifying for an open work permit. You can find this information here:
