Canadian visa
Hi, I'm interested in finding out about the best option to get a Canadian visa to work as a pilot. Does anyone know if the express entry is the best way, whether companies sponsor or offer letters of employment to people applying for a visa or if the Canadian regional programes would be the best option?
Any help appreciated!
Many thanks

Utter nonsense.
There have never been more jobs available and advertised in Canadian aviation
as they are presently.
There are several ways you can go about being legally employed as a pilot
in Canada.
One of the first is to get your Employer to spend $1,000 on an assessment
to verify that there is in fact a shortage for your skills. Once you wait months for that to be completed, you might, get a visa.
Some employers are expert at getting foreign pilots and have a person employed to handle the paperwork which requires perfection.
A simple mistake can end the process.
The statistics show that these "assessments" properly applied for, are more often than not, very successful.

Firstly it would depend on his/her flight experience
- You think those mom n pop shops up north are going to spend money on you to get a visa ?
- I know a couple of people who went to flight school and got work permits as instructors , there was a guy I know out east who eventually flew for a regional .
This is a long process dealing with citizenship and immigration Canada , they take time and no employer in their right mind would wait for you
Now if you're that major airline that specializes in hiring foreigners that's a different story..

Currently I am in Canada and I can tell you guys is hard to get a job as a pilot if you don't have a PR is like in america you need a green card, same thing. I am try to get a sponsor here with some job as a cook as an Italian cook. As soon as I will sure to get the chance to have the PR then I will apply for the flight school! but I really suggest any one to find job in their own country because on many web site there I saw ad with more than 20 job in aviation, but you must be entitle to live and work in canada !
