Hi! I am just so curious about having a visitor visa and while in Canada, an employer is offering for a job. As a visitor visa holder, Can I apply for change of status as tourist to working with the support of my employer's job offer while in Canada?
Please give me advice.
Thank you in advance.
You will need to apply for a work permit once your employer has an approved LMIA. You will have to apply for the work permit through your home country visa office.
A job offer is not enough to apply for a work permit. Your employer must also obtain an approved LMIA. Obtaining an approved LMIA will take the employer a number of months and also cost them a $1,000 processing fee.
