The Yukon Nominee Program (YNP) Critical Impact Worker stream is a significant avenue for addressing labor shortages in the Yukon territory. It offers employers the opportunity to nominate foreign workers with experience in occupations classified as low-skilled or semi-skilled for Canadian permanent residence. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the program's requirements, application procedure, and its role in facilitating the recruitment of foreign workers to fill essential roles in the Yukon.
Employers must provide a full-time, indeterminate position with a wage that meets industry standards. This ensures stability and fairness in employment conditions for foreign workers.
Yukon businesses must have been operating in the territory for at least one year. Non-profit organizations must demonstrate three years of operation and secure funding for at least one year following the application to the YNP. Additionally, valid licenses to operate in the Yukon are mandatory.
Employers must exhibit efforts to recruit Canadian citizens or permanent residents for the position before offering it to a foreign national. This involves meeting specific advertising criteria, including advertising the position for a specified duration in local and national mediums.
The Yukon Critical Worker stream accepts applications throughout the year. Eligible candidates and Yukon employers collaborate to prepare a complete application, which the employer submits for provincial nomination. Typically, applications are processed within eight to ten weeks.
Upon approval, the candidate receives a nomination from Yukon to apply for permanent residence. They also receive a letter of support for a temporary work permit, enabling them to work in the Yukon while their permanent residence application is processed separately.
After receiving the provincial nomination, applicants have six months to submit a federal application for Canadian permanent residence. This involves completing and mailing a paper-based application to the appropriate center, with processing generally taking around 18 months.
The Yukon Nominee Program’s Critical Impact Worker stream plays a crucial role in addressing labor shortages in the Yukon territory by facilitating the recruitment of foreign workers for essential roles. Through its rigorous requirements and transparent application process, the program ensures that both candidates and employers meet the necessary criteria for successful integration into the Yukon workforce.
