Immigration consultants not authorized to offer jobs in Canada

Canada, 13th February: Do you know that Canada immigration consultants are not licensed to offer employment to foreigners?

Yes, its true. But, many foreigners wanting to get jobs in Canada seem to be oblivious of this fact.

Immigration consultants offering Canada ‘job offers’—Although, immigration consultants do not have the authority to offer jobs to anyone, be it a foreigner or a Canadian, but still, many are duping innocent on the pretext of securing a big job in Canada. This has been come to the notice of the Canadian Embassy. And this has been noticed especially among the foreigners coming to Canada from the UAE.

The business of providing Canada ‘job offers’ is booming although immigration consultants do not have the authority or the license to provide ‘job offers’, states Canadian Embassy.

Newcomers vulnerable to immigration consultants--Many newcomers to Canada experience difficulties in getting jobs after moving to Canada. They are desperate to get employment at the earliest possible time.

And in this desperation, they get lured by immigration consultants who promise good fortune through fake ‘Canada job offers’. Its not just the problems of newcomers already in Canada.

In fact, many aspirants wanting to come to Canada are being fooled by immigration consultants in the UAE. They offer ‘fake job offers’ in Canada.

And such services come in with a huge price. As per the information available, applicants for Canada immigration are being asked to pay Dh15,000 in lieu of the so called ‘work permit’(along with a guaranteed Canada job).

Lack of employer-employee link in Canada—the main culprit—It is being believed that rules made to facilitate Canadian employers and potential foreign employees are proving a hurdle for both.

Employers in Canada need to demonstrate they have made sufficient efforts to find Canadians for the available jobs before recruiting foreign workers.

And this is quite lengthy and tedious process. High priced offers of Canadian jobs are being provided by immigration consultants in the UAE.

And there is a big demand for getting such job offers among immigrants. The reason is that having prior offers of jobs in Canada is a requirement for majority of Canada immigrant visas. So, in such a case, many prefer to go for such services even by shelling out big bucks.
