Default Regarding Canada Work Permit ?

I have these final doubts, can any one please advice ?

- For Work Permit we no need to write IELTS, that's good. But what is the max validity period of Work permit ?
- Do we have Work Permit for Software Developers ?
- How to find any consultancy companies/visa sponsors, can suggest any websites please


Thank you so much

I don't think you have to do English exam but things are changing. Yes you'll require a work permit as a software developer and for that you will need a LMO and employer. Validity can be anything from 1-3 years

Have you read the Job Hunting section of the Wiki? That has loads of useful info. And have you been out to Canada to job hunt in person? That's how most people on the forum have found jobs, probably your best bet.

Also, although you're correct that you don't need IELTS for a TWP, your English will need to be very good for you to be considered for a position, so if you don't feel it's strong enough it's worth brushing up.

Good luck.
