Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Registration Resources
Immigrating to Canada for a Nursing Position
The Process of Obtaining a Temporary Work Permit
After making every reasonable effort to hire a qualified and available Canadian or Permanent Resident, the employer will submit an application on your behalf to Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC). If the employer's application is approved, your employer will provide you with a validation letter. At that time you may apply to your nearest Canadian Consulate for a temporary work permit.
Foreign-trained nurses governed under an international trade agreement with Canada (such as NAFTA) may apply with their job offers directly to the Citizenship & Immigration Canada (CIC) at their nearest Canadian embassy, high commission, or consulate for a temporary work permit without the need for HRSDC validation.
A medical examination will be required for all foreign-trained nurses before a work permit is issued. A temporary work permit is usually renewable annually. From the time of application to CIC to the issuance of the work permit, the processing time will vary, but usually takes a minimum of four months.
If you have a partner who would like to work in British Columbia, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) will issue a temporary work permit to your spouse because you are a highly skilled temporary foreign worker in demand in Canada. More detailed information can be obtained from the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website at www.cic.gc.ca.
The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) for RNs
Both BC and Alberta offer a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) to eligible foreign nurses and their families which allows them to apply for permanent resident status on an expedited basis from Citizenship and Immigration Canada. This program is employer-driven. To be eligible, the candidate must be registered by the appropriate nursing regulatory body. Employers must issue a permanent, full-time job offer to the candidate
