Closed work permit processing time in Nigeria

[Okey53]

Hello
My company recently applied for a closed work permit for me. The job is not a health service NOC but provides critical support for a provincial Emergency Health Service. I was told it will take 14 calendar days but it is about 16days now. Any idea of why the delay? Also what does the Visa office check/verify in the work permit process .

People on this forum have been waiting months for approval under critical support services. Who told you it will take 14 days? The visa office checks whether you can do the job - work experience, education, language tests. Verifies this information and all other documentation. What is the NOC? Do you need medical?

So you have your TC license? Don’t believe that NOC comes under critical support as there is a list.

You don't have to believe.

You don't have to believe.

So how can you be a pilot and fly in Canada? What are you flying? If not licensed by TC then you cannot fly. Also you need a CAT medical too.

Are pilots the only professionals in aviation that TC requires Licensing? And you are sure that am not a Flight Engineer which is part of NOC 72600?

So you are a flight engineer. If so you need a licensed issued by TC. As per the NOC,

• Pilots and flight engineers
• Completion of secondary school and graduation from a certified flying or aviation school are required.
• A university degree or college diploma may be required.
• A commercial pilot's licence (more than 200 hours of flight experience) or an air transport pilot's licence (more than 1500 hours of flight experience) is required.
• Additional licences or endorsements to fly different types of aircraft are required.
• Flight engineers require a flight engineer licence issued by Transport Canada.
• Structured training is provided by employers.

Google - flight engineer transport canada - to research the licensing requirements.
