目前在加拿大的访问者如有工作合同则可以就地申请工作许可
******************
有个好消息：
2020-08-25 加拿大移民部在媒体上公布如下信息：
Visitors who are currently in Canada and have a valid job offer are now able to apply for an employer-specific work permit and receive the permit without having to leave the country.
目前在加拿大的访问者如有工作合同则可以就地申请工作许可
******************
这个政策适合哪些人？
我们之前主要关注学生和家长的各类签证申请，很少涉及到工作许可的内容。之前，也只是帮学生做了带薪实习工作许可，积累一些经验，其他的工作许可申请很少涉及。
不过，在之前就已经听说过，一些学生在加拿大读书，由于年龄比较小，所以父母陪读，一些学生的父母通过当地的机构的协助和指导，顺利地获得了工作许可。
现在这个政策已经出了，适合那些现在停留在加拿大，而且是以访问者的身份停留的人，那么，一些学生家长是可以考虑申请的；另外，有一些单纯在加拿大停留谋求工作机会的人也是可以考虑的；还有一些是之前有工作许可但是过期了只好把自己改成访问者身份的，也可以享受相关的优惠。
看起来是一个挺好的政策，但是执行起来，其实是不容易的，因为要从雇主那里得到一个工作合同，并且得到相关的政府批文，后者还是有难度的，而且是需要时间的。
但是既然政府要为企业考虑，要为这些申请工作许可的人考虑，我相信在今后的执行过程中会相对比较宽松，有可能出现更多利好的政策。

New temporary public policy will allow visitors to apply for a work permit without having to leave Canada
From: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
News release
Change intended to benefit employers who are still facing difficulties finding workers
August 24, 2020—Ottawa—Visitors who are currently in Canada and have a valid job offer will be able to apply for an employer-specific work permit and, if approved, receive the permit without having to leave the country, thanks to a new public policy announced today by the Honourable Marco E.L. Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship.
This temporary policy change takes effect immediately and will benefit employers in Canada who continue to face difficulties finding the workers they need, as well as temporary residents who would like to contribute their labour and skills to Canada’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the pandemic, temporary residents who remained in Canada were encouraged to maintain valid legal status. With air travel limited around the world, some visitors to Canada have been unable to leave, while some foreign workers had to change their status to visitor because their work permit was expiring and they didn’t have a job offer to be able to apply for a new work permit. Some employers in Canada have also faced ongoing labour and skills shortages throughout this period, including those who provide important goods and services that Canadians rely on.
To be eligible, an applicant looking to benefit from this temporary public policy must
- have valid status in Canada as a visitor on August 24, 2020 and remain in Canada
- have a job offer
- submit an application for an employer-specific work permit that is supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment （LMIA） or an LMIA-exempt offer of employment, no later than March 31, 2021
- meet all other standard admissibility criteria
This temporary public policy also provides the opportunity for applicants who meet these criteria and who had a valid work permit in the past 12 months to begin working for their new employer before their work permit application has been fully approved. To do so, they need to follow the instructions for the process described here:

新的临时公共政策将允许游客无需离开加拿大即可申请工作许可
来自：加拿大移民部
新闻发布
变革旨在使仍面临寻找工人困难的雇主受益
2020年8月24日-渥太华-当前在加拿大且具有有效工作合同（Job offer）的游客，将能够申请适合特定雇主的工作许可，如果获得批准，则无需离开即可获得该许可，这要归功于移民部长Mendicino所宣布的新的公共政策。
这项暂时的政策变更将立即生效，这将使在加拿大继续面临寻找所需工人的困难的雇主以及希望为加拿大从COVID-19疫情中的康复中贡献自己的劳动和技能的临时居民受益。
在疫情期间，（我们）鼓励留在加拿大的临时居民保持有效的法律地位。由于世界各地的航空旅行受到限制，一些来加拿大的游客无法离开，而一些外国工人则由于工作许可即将到期并且没有工作合同可以申请而不得不将其身份更改为访客，从而无法申请新的工作许可。在此期间，加拿大的一些雇主还面临持续的劳动力短缺问题，包括那些提供加拿大人赖以生存的重要商品和服务的雇主。
要符合资格，希望从此临时公共政策中受益的申请人，必须符合如下条件：
.于2020年8月24日在加拿大具有访客身份，并停留在加拿大
.有工作合同
.在不迟于2021年3月31日，提交由劳动力市场影响评估（LMIA）或LMIA豁免的工作合同，适合于特定雇主的工作许可申请
.符合所有其他要求
此临时公共政策还为符合这些条件并在过去12个月中拥有有效工作许可的申请人提供了一个机会，可以在他们的工作许可申请得到完全批准之前开始为新雇主工作。为此，他们需要遵循此处描述的流程说明：
