I have been in BC a Bunch throughout my life, have relatives there and now have a Job offer in Chiliwack BC and Its the Oportunity to do My Dream Job which is Building Race Engines for Pontiac Cars I'm not 100% sure this will pass as a skilled worker deal But I hve 13 years experience and there is maybe a Hand full of people that do what i can do and so far No one in Canada has been able to fill their needs, All ive done is I passed the Quiz with a 70 and they require 67, I'm trying to Move there permanantly and i am a responsible 26yo guy single trying to persue my dream, Whats the Best way to get started on getting me up there Living Legally? I have not done the application yet, I'm new at this and don't know much about this process so i figured i'd research it, Thanks for any help!, Derek

If only a handful of people can do it and you are one of them then I would say it is a skilled worker deal - your new employer should sponsor you.

Canadian Work Permits and Visas :: Immigration to Canada

Good luck!

have you looked at getting a work permit? if you have a confirmed job call Citizenship and Immigration Canada or do a google search on a nafta visa.. basically go to a border crossing and get a work permit. Once in Canada you can apply for migration. If you are applying to migrate may take a while and not sure how long they will hold the job for you.
