Sign in trouble

System updates can cause minor technical issues. If you are having trouble signing in, clear your browser cache and try again.

If you are still having trouble, send us an email. Include a detailed description of the problem you are having and the steps you have taken to fix it. Include a screenshot showing the problem or the error message you are getting. This will help us understand the issue better.

In most cases, we’ll respond within 5 business days. If we can’t solve the issue, we’ll help you submit your offer of employment another way.

The Employer Portal is for employers who hire temporary workers through the International Mobility Program (IMP). It lets employers submit offers of employment for temporary workers who don’t need a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). Some employers don’t need to submit an offer of employment in the Employer Portal or pay the employer compliance fee. Find out if you’re exempt.

Don’t use code C88 - Innovation when submitting your job offer. If you do, the work permit might be refused.

Changes to your responsibilities as an employer

New regulations came into effect on September 26, 2022, to improve worker protections and increase awareness about workers’ rights in Canada.
