How to Start the procees for work visa in Canada

[Natym]

Hello all,

I'm Nataly from Dominican Republic

This is my first time here and I want of some of you orient me to start the process for a work visa. My husband is automotive mechanic acredited by GMC and BMW and I have a degree in quality. There are company in Canada that can hire people directly in other country or we have to apply in the embassy in our origin country.

What is the best way to apply for a work visa ?....

The first step is to find an employer in Canada who is willing to give you a job offer.

That employer must then apply for an LMO (labour market opinion) to request approval to hire you.

Assuming the LMO is approved, you must then apply for a work permit.

Thank you .... All the companies need the LMO?

There are only a few situations where an LMO is not required. They are outlined here:
