Visa Sponsorship & Immigration Information:
East Point Farm welcomes international applicants.

Eligible pathways for this role may include the TFWP Agricultural Stream and, for certain nationalities and bilateral agreements, the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP). The LMIA is issued by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and, if approved, can be used to apply for a work permit with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Some applicants may need to provide biometrics and undergo a medical exam.
Foreign applicants should prepare: a valid passport, updated resume/CV, proof of work experience, references, and any relevant training certificates. Language test results are not typically required for TFWP agricultural roles but may strengthen your application. Ensure you can clearly state your current work authorization status in Canada (if any).
How to Apply:
Prepare an updated resume/CV in English highlighting farm or general labor experience.
List key skills such as planting, harvesting, packing, or equipment handling.
State your current work authorization status in Canada (or if you require sponsorship).
