The Canadian government has launched the new Global Talent Stream (GTS), which includes fast track processing time for work permits in Canada under Temporary foreign Worker Program. As of June 12, 2017, work permit processing time will be as short as two weeks for highly skilled occupations.
Key Objectives of Global Talent Stream
The two main categories of the Global Talent stream will focus on the selected high demand occupations and high growth organizations. The GTS aims at preferring the quick processing of the work permit applications from foreign skilled workers applying for high demand occupations in Canada.
The idea is the help the fast growing industries, especially the IT sector of Canada, which facing the skill shortage of highly skilled and talented workers, and hence, need to rapidly hire the overseas talent for specific positions to survive in the global competition.
Rapid Application processing time under GTS
The GTS aims at the processing time of 10 business days for work permit applications along with LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) for those applicants the employers of whom are authorized to hire foreign workers through GTS. The LMIA is an approval document issued by IRCC to the employers in Canada, which ensures that no Canadian was overlooked or verifies the fact that no local employee was available for the position for which, a worker from overseas is being hired. Once the LMIA is issued, the candidate can apply for Canadian work permit.
The ESDC (Employment and Social Development Canada) is administering the Global Talent Stream (GTS), which in the beginning will continue for 24 months. As per the government if we support the industries and organizations grow and flourish, they will in turn create further jobs for Canadians. And GTS is one such step to help and support industries and companies in Canada to develop and thrive.
Main Categories of GTS
The Global Talent Stream (GTS) has two key categories, i.e.It is being considered that the organizations under both the categories will not only create new jobs for Canadians soon, but also will help the growth and development of Canadian economy in long term. Moreover, the talented overseas workers coming through GTS will also play a key role in training and skill development of the Canadian workers.

Visas Avenue proven to be good consultant when it s regarding processing my Canadian pr. To me they were professional and I’m completely satisfied with the accountability they have shown in my case and follow ups they did for me. Rajeshwari.V is my Case Manager for Canada and she did an excellent job in explaining me the whole process/ documents needed and how/where to get them. Finally i got my pr exactly on/before the expected processing time. I knew the whole process and yet I took help of visas avenue as I wanted professionals to fail-proof my application and make sure it cause no extra unnecessary delays and that’s exactly what I got for them. Definitely recommended..!!

Let me start by saying that working with Visas Avenue has been a good experience. I recently received my Visa for Canada and I appreciate all the support that the staff of Visas Avenue extended to me. Their protocols for handling applications are very thorough and efficient. They have working alternatives for different issues that might arise during the Visa processing. I worked with 2 case managers and one of them was Shivangi Arora. I must say that both of them have been excellent and empathetic. They are professional, helpful and dedicated. Special thanks to Shivangi who has been exceptional at her work. The overall experience has been very good. I would recommend Visas Avenue to people who want to immigrate to the destination of their choice. Working with Visas Avenue has been a delight. I wish them and the people who use their services all the best.

It was amazing experience associating with Visas Avenue who helped me a lot understating and getting PR for Australia. My thanks goes to the whole team of Visas Avenue and especially Kirti Chauhan who worked really hard for my case. Actually, my real elder brother suggested me to take their help since he got his Australia PR by having association with Visas Avenue only. I will recommend everyone who is looking for any PR then kindly hire them as they people are the best for this job

"First of all I would like to thank Tabby K who initially guided me in detail through the Australian PR process, even though I had already conveyed that I will not be signing up for any Professional Services and will be filing it on my own. Still she detailed out every step and answered all my queries then and there itself. Secondly and most importantly a big thanks to our case officer Kirti Chauhan whose impeccable professionalism and patience in hearing and responding to our thousand queries helped us achieving the Visa. We used to be extra cautious and pessimistic with every step, but she always kept us motivated and was a great support during the whole process. I will definitely recommend Visas Avenue to all Visa aspirants."

I recommend everyone looking to settle abroad, can safely choose VISAS AVENUE.
