I have many family friends in Canada and I visited Canada recently and having Valid Canada Visitor Visa, I just wanted to know that can Temporary Visa Conversion (Visitor Visa) to Study or to Work Permit is possible.
I am holding Visa for Mexico and USA
Please provide me with the solution
Thanks In Advance
1. For a study permit, unless you are US resident, you will have to apply at an overseas office with a letter of acceptance from a Canadian school. The forms are on office's web site. For offices see: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions.asp You realize that you will have to pay international rates from $9K to $13K per year and show $10K in funds for living expenses.
2. For a work permit, again you will need to apply overseas. You need an approved Labour Market Opinion from HRSDC. The employer must advertise for 2 weeks on the job bank and demonstrate that there are no PRs/Canadians available for the job, and you are the most qualified. With an approved LMO, you then can apply for a work permit.
