TEMPORARY RESIDENCE
Strategic entry and legal stay management
Navigating Canada’s temporary resident programs requires proactive regulatory awareness and disciplined documentation. At INKWAY, we structure temporary status applications to protect your current authorization while preserving long-term permanent residence objectives.
Study Permits & Academic Strategy
Strategic academic positioning from admission to Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) eligibility
Service Highlights
DLI & Program Audit: Verification of Designated Learning Institution status and alignment with current PGWP eligibility criteria, including field-of-study restrictions where applicable.

PAL/TAL Coordination: Managing Provincial/Territorial Attestation Letters to ensure compliance with federal study regulations.
Dual Intent & Ties Analysis: Structured submissions addressing the temporary purpose requirement while transparently managing long-term immigration intent.
What You Should Know
Most foreign nationals require a Study Permit for programs longer than six months. Success depends on demonstrating active enrollment, financial stability, and compliance with conditions of stay. INKWAY focuses on the end-to-end pathway, ensuring studies remain a viable bridge to Canadian work experience.
Work Permits & Labour Market Access
Expert navigation of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) and International Mobility Program (IMP)

LMIA-Exempt Pathways: Identification of specialized IMP pathways, including Intra-Company Transfers, CUSMA/Free Trade categories, and Francophone Mobility, subject to program-specific eligibility criteria.
Employer Compliance Audits: Advising on Employer Portal requirements and maintaining integrity of employment offers to mitigate inspections, bans, or administrative penalties.
Spousal Open Work Permits (SOWP): Strategically securing work authorization for accompanying spouses of eligible high-skilled workers or students under current policy directives.

High-precision entry solutions for tourism, business, and family reunification

A Temporary Resident Visa is a privilege, not a right. Super Visas offer multi-entry stays up to five years. Success relies on demonstrating strong ties to the home country and credible intentions for temporary entry, which INKWAY carefully documents.
Status Maintenance & Restoration
Ensuring your lawful presence in Canada remains uninterrupted
Service Highlights
Maintained Status Management: Ensuring extensions are submitted within authorized periods to continue work or study.
