Is there a requirement for the applicant to obtain a confirmed offer of employment in order to qualify for permanent residence under the Independent category?
The Canadian Citizenship & Immigration authorities do not impose a requirement for applicants to secure a confirmed offer of employment. In essence, current Canadian immigration policy provides that if an applicant meets the skilled worker selection criteria, he/she is likely to become successfully established in Canada. However, “arranged employment”, (confirmed by a Human Resources Development Centre) will provide a prospective applicant with an additional 10 units of assessment and in some cases, is an important aspect of the selection process.
