Good evening,

I just returned back to Canada from the states, I am a uk citizen and lost my appeal for not meeting the requirements of my or card as I was out of the country with family issues, my brother is a pr and my wife is on a 2 year working holiday visa, I don't want to leave her here as she wants to stay, what is the best course of action for me to return back to Canada to work as I have a fantastic job already here and I don't want to lose it, I have to leave in a week is there anything I can do?
 
Applying for an IEC yourself is out. They are all gone for this year.

If your employer can obtain an approved LMIA, you can then apply for a closed work permit. However the LMIA process can take 4-6 months - so there would be a period where you wouldn't be able to work.

Provided your wife has a full time job that is NOC A, B or 0 skill level - you can apply for an open work permit based on her employment (although no guarantees the work permit will be approved).

I unfortunately don't see any option that would allow you to continue working without a break.
 
Thank you for your message, I completely understand that there will be a break in employment and I completely understand that I will have to return back to the uk I just wonder if there is anything I can do to get back to where I once was here in Canada that is not going to take a year or something like that

Would anyone know if my brother could sponsor me?

Your brother could only sponsor you if your parents are dead and he has no Canadian citizen/PR family members.
