Optics-photonics worker

The following specific procedure applies to the hiring of a foreign temporary worker in the optics-photonics field by a company in the Capitale-Nationale.

Procedure

  1. First, you must identify your needs (positions you are unable to fill) and obtain the name(s) and contact information of the foreign worker(s) you wish to hire.

  1. Next, forward your request to the Ministère de l’Immigration et des Communautés culturelles (MICC) - Immigration-Québec Direction régionale de la Capitale-Nationale et de l’Est-du-Québec. Within a few days of your request, you will receive an information kit along with the forms to be completed.

  1. Complete the Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC) form Demande de confirmation d'offre d'emploi temporaire pour un travailleur étranger (PDF, 26 Kb) (Request for confirmation of an offer of temporary employment to a foreign worker).

  1. Send the completed form to Immigration-Québec Direction régionale de la Capitale-Nationale et de l’Est-du-Québec, accompanied by:
    - a letter of intent to hire the foreign worker
    - payment of the fees levied to review an offer of temporary employment
    - the form Application for a Québec Acceptance Certificate for Temporary Work duly completed by the foreign worker. It is important that the foreign worker sign the last section of the form entitled Optional authorization to employer, granting you the power to represent him or her in dealings with the MICC
    - all other supporting documents required to process the application for a Certificat d’acceptation du Québec (CAQ – Québec Acceptance Certificate)
    - payment of the fees levied to review the CAQ application.

 

  PRACTICAL ADVICE  
Be sure to submit all of the required documents in order to avoid delays in the processing of your application.  
     

 

  1. Once your file has been reviewed, the HRSDC and the MICC will inform you of their joint decision in writing. If your application is accepted, two copies of the CAQ (one for the foreign worker and the other for Citizenship and Immigration Canada - CIC) will be attached to the validation letter confirming your offer of employment. To ensure that the foreign worker has all the necessary documents to apply for a work permit, you must send him or her:

    - a copy of the validation letter
    - both copies of the CAQ (the foreign worker’s copy and the copy to be sent to CIC).
