Visa Sponsorship & Immigration Information
Visa sponsorship is available for eligible international candidates. Sunworks Farm can support a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) to hire through Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). This LMIA allows you to apply for a Canadian work permit tied to the employer and role. Longer-term pathways in Canada may include the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) and, for skilled candidates, Express Entry, though this specific Farm Worker role typically follows the TFWP route.
The general process is straightforward: after selection, the employer initiates the LMIA process. Once a positive LMIA is issued, you apply for a Canadian work permit, complete biometrics, and undergo medical or police checks if requested. Prepare a valid passport, updated resume, references, education or training records if available, and any previous work permits or immigration documents. A formal English test is usually not required for TFWP farm roles, but basic English communication is essential for safety and teamwork.
