Intra-Company Transfer

  • Intra-Company Transfer

The Intra-Company Transfer program allows foreign nationals who are employed by a multinational company to transfer to a Canadian branch, subsidiary, or affiliate of the company. The foreign national must have been employed by the company for at least one year and have a job offer from the Canadian branch. The Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) program is designed to facilitate the temporary transfer of skilled workers from foreign companies to their Canadian branches or subsidiaries.

Here are some key details about the ICT program:

  •   Eligibility: To be eligible for the ICT program, foreign nationals must have been employed by the foreign company for at least one year in a managerial, executive, or specialized knowledge position. They must also have a job offer from the Canadian branch or subsidiary of the company, and the Canadian job must be in a similar position.
  •  Duration: The ICT program allows foreign nationals to work in Canada for up to three years, or up to one year for workers in specialized knowledge positions. The length of stay may be extended for a maximum of seven years for managers and executives and up to five years for workers in specialized knowledge positions. 
  • Work permit: To participate in the ICT program, foreign nationals must apply for a work permit. The work permit is tied to the specific job and employer and is not transferable to other employers or jobs.
  • Application process: The application process for the ICT program involves submitting a work permit application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The application must include various documents, including a job offer letter, evidence of the foreign national's qualifications, and proof of their employment with the foreign company.

 Overall, the ICT program is a great way for multinational companies to transfer skilled workers to their Canadian operations, while also providing foreign workers with valuable international experience.
