TWP and Regulated Occupations
Just been doing some research on the HRSDC web site and came across this at the bottom of one of the pages.
So dose this mean that when you apply for a TWP you need to show that your eligible to sit your trade exam? Do you need a letter from the Ministry of training apprentice office to show your eligibility??
Also, please be aware that CIC will not issue a work permit if the foreign worker does not meet certification and licensing requirements for regulated occupations in Canada (e.g. doctors, engineers, tradespersons). Making the necessary arrangements with the regulatory body for certification and licensing is the employer's and the foreign worker's responsibility.

Re: TWP and Regulated Occupations
Thats a nightmare!!! Just come back from Canada and had my Qualification and work experience assessed at a Ministry of training and education apprentice office in Mississauga, everything was fine and was informed I was eligible to challenge the exam but I didnt get anything in writing!!!!!!
Think it going to be a pain in the ass to sort a written approval letter from the UK. Guess I'll have to start some serous Emailing.

Give them a ring and they should of issued you with a sub number!!
What area of work are you looking at??
In ontario not all areas need the licence but they like you to have it!
We was advised my the ministry that hubby wouldnt need a licence to work as an industrial electrician, but most of companys want you to have it, then when you have it they like you to be PR, circles :curse:
