From a work and certification point of view, you will need to challenge the Certificate of Qualification (based on your hours of experience) for the Province you wish to move too - so for BC : Challenge Certification/Recognize Prior Experience If you have significant work experience in a trade but have never been certified in Canada, you may apply to challenge the certification. Check any other trades that you think might fit - then pan down the page to find the above part.. https://www.itabc.ca/discover-appren...earch-programs Once you have successfully challenged you can use that to qualify for the Federal Skilled Worker (Trades) route (or a job offer can help you qualify too).

Re: HD Mechanic Visa options
Ok perfect i have emailed the ITA of BC and asked about submitting all the relevant documents to get my qualifications certified in Canada, i was just unsure if i was to do it as it then asks me to do a practical within 24 hours of getting my qualifications certified.

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/british...2761b91e2e.jpg You may not be asked to write the exam - your hours of verified experience may be sufficient.. you won't know until they have assessed your application... and it's 24 months, not hours :) If ITA approves your challenge application, you must then complete the requirements to challenge certification in your trade, which can include a practical assessment and/or writing the BC Certification of Qualification or Interprovincial Red Seal exam. You must write and pass this exam within 24 months of approval |
Re: HD Mechanic Visa options
