A Work Permit is a temporary visa which does not authorize you to immigrate to Canada. However, obtaining a Work Permit can be beneficial for your future immigration application to Canada. You can also come to Canada to work as a live-in caregiver.

With the right information, you can easily apply for a Canadian work permit and job search visa.
