Truck owner-operator

[Maddog007]

Hi,

Can you apply to be self-employed or in a similar category that will allow me to stay and work in Canada?I see there is a lot of owner-operator jobs available and was thinking of buying a truck..Would that be possible?

Truck owners-operators don't qualify under self-employed. You'll have to research Canada's immigration programs to see if there is a stream that a truck operator might qualify under (I would try the Provincial Nominee programs). You will have to become a permanent resident before you can buy a truck and work here.
