Canada Work Permit Eligibility Calculator

Answer a few easy questions to see which Canadian work permit you may be able to apply for. This is only a first check. It is not legal advice and it does not guarantee a work permit.

3 Job offer & LMIA

4 Your background & permission

Work & language

How well do you speak English? (Angrezi)

How good is your English? You may still need an official test.

How well do you speak French? (French)

How good is your French? French is not needed for most jobs.

Have you taken an English test (IELTS or CELPIP)? (Angrezi test)

IELTS and CELPIP are official English tests for Canada.

Your test score (if you have one) (Aap ka IELTS band score)

Your overall score, from 0 to 9. For example, 6.5.

Your job (Aap ka kaam / job)

What job do you want to do in Canada? Write your job title.

Your job type (NOC / TEER) (Aap ke job ki type — NOC / TEER)

Canada groups jobs into types called TEER 0 to 5. If you do not know yours, choose the last option.

Work & language

This step is about your language skills and your job. Your English and French levels, and your IELTS test result if you have one, help the calculator understand which work permit pathways may fit you. Your job type (NOC / TEER) tells us what kind of work you do in Canada.

You do not need a perfect score. Answer honestly with your current level — the calculator only gives a first, preliminary indication.
