Business lawyer expertise demystifies pathways to immigration

For more than a quarter of a century, Tarunjeet Gujral has partnered with other business owners and entrepreneurs to help them reach their goals. He has highly specialized expertise in corners of the corporate law arena, which might elude other lawyers and law firms in Mississauga and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). So, you can trust that Gujral Law Professional Corporation has the expertise and hands-on experience to adeptly handle even the most complex business matters that require navigating the Canadian legal system. 

For professionals with their eyes on expansion within our great country, the immigration process can be daunting. It demands an experienced and knowledgeable legal partner who also has the perspective to ease anxieties that surround the many unknowns and challenges that those unfamiliar with the process may encounter. It does help to know that there is a structure in place. Our team works with you and your team to identify the best “pathway” to immigrate and to assure that the process is seamless and doesn’t disrupt existing business operations that may be underway. 

In consultation with you, we may discuss some of the following options: 

• Just starting up? Through the federal start-up visa program, qualified entrepreneurs may set up shop in Canada without minimum requirements for investment. However, there are other requirements to demonstrate that you are “qualified” as a visa candidate. These include documentation from a “designated” organization within Canada that supports your business and demonstrates your commitment to contributing favourably as a member of the business community in the country.
• Province-specific programs vary depending on the specific labour market and economic needs identified by each province and territory. We all know how dramatically these geographic areas vary. So, what may be deemed as an “in-demand” skillset in one province, may not be as sought-after in another. Gujral Law Professional Corporation is familiar with these programs to guide clients toward the best “pathway” to establishing or acquiring a business within a given region. 
• Labour Market Impact Assessments represent their category and area of expertise. The LMIA is an example of the documentation necessary to hire the likes of workers from outside Canada’s borders; for instance, to obtain a work permit in Canada, the employer must demonstrate that no citizens (or permanent residents) are available to take on that position. These LMIAs, in other words, are as the acronym suggests – they involve assessing parameters such as labour and skills shortages within given markets to evaluate the worthiness of outside employees. 

We appreciate that these options can be dizzying from the get-go; however, the best avenue to fulfilling your professional and personal goals becomes apparent with a bit of guidance.
