In episode 122 of the Canadian Immigration Podcast, the focus is on the top 10 crucial considerations when bringing an employee under a Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Mark Holthe, the seasoned immigration lawyer hosting the episode, expertly explores these key points and questions that can make or break an international hiring process. From examining the reciprocal relationships outlined in the FTA with the employee's country of origin to determining whether the FTA applies exclusively to citizens or extends to permanent residents, the episode offers essential guidance for employers and applicants alike. Further, the podcast delves into issues like bringing dependents, admissibility checks, work permit caps and extensions, and the importance of long-term planning. Business visitors' regulations under the FTA, coverage of technicians and trades employees, and the list of professionals eligible under the FTA are also thoroughly dissected, making this episode a valuable resource for navigating the complexities of international employment through Free Trade Agreements.
