During the past few weeks I’ve been doing some research on the Federal Skilled Trades Program. I was trying to find out how anyone abroad could apply to the Permanent Residence using this program and without a job offer.
Having a job offer from abroad for an electrician, plumber, welder and so on is not easy. Not at all. And most of the time, these trades are subject of scams by unscrupulous people promising what they don’t have and taking advantage of those looking for a brighter, better future.
I thought it was not going to be hard. Given that the Program says that you need a certificate of qualification in your skilled trade issued by a provincial or territorial body that CIC had done their homework and already set up something with said bodies. But not.
