Hi,

VJO validated job offer doesn't need to be on Permanent job offer is this condition true?

If the employee is on Temp Work permit they can also apply for a VJO ?


Check the following link, did they relax the requirement recently?

WHAT CHANGED?

Similar to applying for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) at the federal level, employers who apply to validate their job offer have to prove that they tried, and failed, to hire a Canadian citizen or permanent resident to fill the position. Now, this condition is waived if the candidate is already working for the employer on a valid temporary work permit.

If the candidate is not in Canada, or is in Canada but is not already working for the employer making the job offer, the employer must meet the minimum recruitment effort requirements described below.

If you read carefully, under Step 1: Job offer requirements, it says that:

"the position being offered to the foreign worker must: Be permanent and full time"

The temperary work permit is the immigration status and it has nothing to do with whether the offered position is temperary or permanent.

The answer of your question is that the job offer must be permanent.
