Temporary Work visas

Helping you relocate for you dream staffing role

Going the extra mile, quite literally

Some of the people we speak with are highly motivated to move across the pond. Whichever pond it is, we are keen to support as much as possible as we know that wherever you currently live there is an appetite for expats to enter Canada in a recruiting capacity.

We work alongside a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant who can support the process. As such, we also have a good understanding of what the criteria would be for folks to be approved for entry into Canada.

H1B: Specialty Occupations
- Employer must receive DOL certification
- Employer then files a Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker
- Once approved, the prospective H-1B worker may apply with the US Department of State (DOS) at a US embassy or consulate abroad for an H-1B visa
- Upon entry into the US, Employee may be admitted for a period of up to three years and extended for an additional three
- Process time and costs vary by employer size and employment diversity, ability to pay the employee, and employee’s education and experience. Anywhere from 3 months to 1.5 years. It requires a full analysis of eligibility before knowing if this is an option
TN for Canadians
- Must be a qualified profession (recruiters may be able to qualify as management consultants)
- Employee/consultant must prove they possess the qualifications to practice in that profession
Citizen of Canada
- A prearranged full-time or part-time job with a US employer (not self-employment or commission-based)
- Once all documents have been compiled, the employee will travel to a designated port of entry and if granted, travels to the US. Fastest option.
