Yes exactly i dont have canadian dental licensebestofluck said:he is asking about work license, which means license to practice not a work permit.
Yes the thing is i doubt i will be able to find any job offer since i dont have a valid canadian license and dont know how is it possible to get nominated in my situation since any province will not be interested to nominate someone who will not be able to practice in his field untill a license is obtaineddell2 said:Hmmm, it's NOC specific then.you've to check each province for nomination.
for license I believe you've to give some test in Canada check this http://www.ndeb.ca/en/non-accredited
My plan was to work on my license as soon as i get my pr so that i can have benefits such as lower college funds,student loan and such,am wondering what does doctors and dentists plan in such situationsdell2 said:True, maybe apply for student visa 2 years program then you can collect CEC points or maybe Nomination ?

Thanks a lot i checked the website and its stating that i have to be a canadian resident plus the fees are crazy,do you have any idea about other alternatives??jes_ON said:In response to your first question, no, PNP programs do not expect you to be licensed in their province before you practice in their province (but definitely check the specific rules for your province of interest). Having said that, taking some steps towards the lcensure process demonstrates your seriousness and interest in settling in that province. At the moment, however, several PNP programs have temporarily stopped issuing new nominations.
The suggestion to enter Canada for study purposes is not a bad idea - there are special programs for internationally trained dentists to transition to practice in Canada - for example, in Ontario -

I believe every province would have a similar program on offer. It looks like you will just have missed the application deadline for the next class, but it wouldn't hurt to contact them anyway.
There are some suggested "alternative career" programs, but most would require additional education/training.
If you have any education/experience in research, a research job is a possible alternative career that you can find work in while working towards your licensure. Working with Dental public health programs may be another option.
