Applicants who wish to apply for a Canada work visa from India must pay work permit fees during the application process. The Canadian Embassy/Consulates will only consider the application if the applicant pays the required fees. The work permit fees include the application fee and the biometric fee. Here is a table with the current work permit fees applicable to different types of applicants:

Note: These fees are subject to change, so applicants should confirm the current fees before submitting their application.

As an Indian applicant for a Canada work permit, you should expect a processing time of 44 weeks, which may be longer if you are not applying for an essential occupation. You may also be required to provide your biometrics, including fingerprints and a photo, which may add additional time to your application.

Note: The processing time does not include the time it takes to send your application between the visa application center and the Canadian government office, nor the time required for biometric submission.

Here are some reasons that could lead to the rejection of a Canada work visa application:

• Failure to submit accurate and complete supporting documents.
• Criminal background or failure to meet international security standards.
• Inability to demonstrate sufficient financial resources to cover travel and living expenses in Canada.
• Failure to meet health standards or provide required medical documentation.
• More evidence must be needed to convince visa officers of the applicant’s intentions and plans while in Canada.
• Past violations of human rights or other legal issues.
