The salaries of temporary foreign workers in Canada steadily increases   In the current economic climate, pay raises that exceed inflation for employees in Canada have the potential to be a benefit to individuals interested in coming to   Canada under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). According to the Federal Government’s website “wages offered to temporary foreign workers should   be similar to wages paid to Canadian and permanent resident employees hired for the same job and work location, and with similar skills and years of experience.”   Thus, all employers must pay temporary workers competitive salaries under the TFWP regardless of which stream they use to recruit foreign employees.   #TFWP, #foreign_workers, IRCC, #skilled_workers (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdIxxQmLn6v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Minister Mendocino hinted when Federal Skilled Worker invitations are expected?   The outbreak of the COVID-19 affected the work of Express Entry. In 2020, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) concentrated on the provincial nominees and candidates in the Canadian Experience Class. From September to December 2020, IRCC started again to accept candidates in the Federal Skilled Worker program, however, since January 2021, the Immigration Department again returned to the practice of PNP and CEC-specific draws. In one of the interviews with Minister Marco Mendicino, he was asked about the overall immigration targets, Mendicino said that he is confident that as we see more Canadians get vaccinated, we find ourselves in a better position, and by this summer and fall we hopefully will be able to welcome newcomers eventually as we have always done. Following the introduction of the new temporary pathways and CEC draws, IRCC will have to eventually get back to the candidates overseas to meet the immigration targets.   #Express_Entry, #PR, #FSW, #skilled_workers (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/COiP7YLHR5M/?igshid=avfh9qlxbupw

In 2020, Canada issued 104,485 work permits in the International Mobility Program   The International Mobility Program (IMP) allows Canadian employers to hire temporary foreign workers without obtaining a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). Work permits issued under the IMP may be open or closed, depending on the specific program and stream. Such work permits can be issued for individuals who fall into regulations of free trade agreements signed by Canada, several categories of Entrepreneurs or Self-Employed Persons, Exchange Academics, Spouses of skilled workers and international students, intra-company transfers and some other categories. In 2019, Canada issued 306,590 IMP work permits. This year, we can face the effect of COVID-19 that is the main reason for a drastic drop in numbers. In the first half of 2020, IRCC issued work permits to only 104,485 foreign workers under the International Mobility Program   #IMP, #International_Mobility, #Skilled_workers, #work_permits, #work_ in_Canada #Ghimmigrationsvcs (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE9WO8-DlqH/?igshid=1uim44limpre6
