Obtaining a Work Permit Despite Repeated Twists and Turns|Mr. N

Date Posted:January 29, 2015

Last Updated:September 24, 2026

After switching to a working holiday following a co-op program, this client asked Shiraishi VisaJP Canada to handle a work permit application. Even after changing jobs, he received flexible support and obtained his work permit in about 5 months.

Mr. N, a careful and research-minded client, consulted us right after arriving in Canada. His situation has changed since then, but he is still moving toward his goal of “permanent residence!” We will keep cheering him on!

Client Comments

Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?

I wanted to get permanent residence in Canada, and when I heard I could get a working holiday after my co-op, I got one right away. I was researching how to connect it to a work permit or permanent residence, and I was torn between looking for a job and a path to permanent residence using my background in accounting, or aiming for BCPNP ELSS.

What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?

In the end, an employer in a suburban part of BC agreed to apply for a work permit for me, and at that point I asked Shiraishi VisaJP Canada to handle the work permit application.

What was the most memorable part of the process?

I was not really satisfied with the working conditions, but I was putting up with it, thinking “as long as they give me a work permit.” Then, a few months before my working holiday expired, I found my current employer in Victoria. The work permit application was already well underway, so I hesitated, but when I consulted the consultant, I received the reassuring advice, “We will make the visa work to match what you want,” so I took the plunge and quit. Right away, I had them apply for a work permit again with my current employer.

My working holiday expired partway through, so following the consultant’s advice, I returned to Japan temporarily. Right at that time, I married my fiancée, and now I am on a work permit and she is on a working holiday, and we have started living together.

Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada

I want to keep consulting the consultant, obtain permanent residence together with my wife, and keep doing my best in Canada.
