Canada Work Permit Expedited Under the CUKTCA


Posted July 28, 2021 by anmolsingh1

As no LMIA is required under CUKTCA, the work permit processing will be faster for the UK nationals
 
UK Nationals can now have their work permits processed faster after the post-Brexit agreement between UK and Canada on April 1. Prior to this, UK nations are covered in CETA; they are now eligible to get work permits under CUKTCA (Canada UK Trade Continuity Agreement). The Processing will be faster under this program as there is no Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) required for the appellants to be selected.

Those UK nationals who are already working in Canada under CETA and would like to extend their work permit need to fill a new application under CUKTCA.

This new program is based on CETA, and the streams available under this program are –
