Hi all,

I am moving to Canada from the UK through an intra company transfer, and the immigration attorney is recommending a specialist knowledge visa, and we will be sponsoring my partner too.

Does anyone know how long the processing time is for these types of visa?

Many thanks and a happy Christmas!

Read through discussions in the Foreign Workers section of the forum to get a feel for processing times.

Overall, things are taking longer right now due to COVID and it's difficult to predict processing times. I would could on several months for the work permit to be processed.

In normal times, how long would one of these visas take to be processed?
