Express Entry, Federal Skilled Worker Program — Canada's flagship points-based immigration pathway for skilled professionals. Candidates are assessed on age, education, language ability (English and/or French), work experience, and adaptability under the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Invitations to Apply (ITAs) are issued through draws based on CRS ranking as well as specific selection categories set by the Canadian government. Successful applicants may then apply for permanent residency.(6–8 months)
Work Permit (LMIA-Based) — Allows Canadian employers to hire foreign workers to fill temporary labour shortages when no Canadian citizens or permanent residents are available. The employer must obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) demonstrating the need. Can serve as a stepping stone to permanent residency through Express Entry or PNP.(2–6 months)
Study Permit — For international students accepted at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in Canada. Allows full-time study and permits up to 20 hours of off-campus work per week during academic sessions (full-time during scheduled breaks). Graduates may be eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which can lead to permanent residency through CEC or PNP.(4–12 weeks)
Study Enrolment Services — NWI's dedicated study enrolment service helps international students select the right programme, institution, and province in Canada. We assist with Designated Learning Institution (DLI) applications, credential evaluation, and the full study permit process from start to finish.(4–12 weeks)
Spousal Sponsorship — Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor their spouse, common-law partner, or conjugal partner for permanent residency. The sponsor signs an undertaking to provide financial support. Can be processed inland (if the partner is already in Canada) or outland.(8–18 months)
Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa) — For foreign nationals who wish to visit Canada for tourism, business meetings, or to visit family. Issued as either a single-entry or multiple-entry visa. Does not permit employment or study. Citizens of visa-exempt countries may instead require an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA).(3–36 months)
Business Immigration — Provincial entrepreneur programs for experienced business owners and investors. Each province has distinct requirements around investment, job creation, and business experience. Provinces select and nominate candidates based on their own economic needs.(12–24 months)
