6. Intra-company Transfers
Intra-company Transfers are used to temporarily move qualified employees from a company in Mexico to the parent company in Canada. The goal is to improve management effectiveness, expanding Canadian exports and to enhance overseas competitiveness. Only certain positions are open for this permit, generally upper level managers or specialized knowledge workers.
The paperwork is initiated by the company. Workers are temporarily allowed to work in Canada. For employees wishing to transfer for longer periods, there are other programs available.
