Work route reality check for Canada

LMIA/employer pathways vary; study-to-work is a different track from a fresh work file.

SK Immigration helps with CV packaging, document checklists and appointment prep. We do not sell fake job guarantees. Employers and missions decide.

Before you pay anyone

  • Confirm the job/contract type matches the visa subclass
  • Language level matches employer expectations
  • Educational documents follow the correct attestation chain
  • You understand SK fees vs medical/government fees
