Temporary Job in Canada

[Wolverine]

If a person from visa exempt country wants to get a summer job in Canada what does he/she need to do? I realize they need a work permit or work visa but do they have to go back to their home country to obtain one or is there a way to get one without leaving Canada?

Assuming you have a job offer and approved LMO, you can obtain a work permit without having to go back home.

At the nearest port of entry, correct?

 

[scylla]

At the nearest land border (not airport).

Yes of course, thank you!

In what case do people apply for a work permit via Vegreville then?
