Rural Community Immigration Pilot
The Rural Community Immigration Pilot (RCIP) provides a permanent residence pathway for skilled workers who plan to work and settle in a participating rural community. After submitting an RCIP permanent residence application, eligible applicants might qualify for a two-year, LMIA-exempt work permit.
Main requirements:
- A valid job offer from a designated employer
- A recommendation from a participating community
- An RCIP permanent residence application
- Compliance with general work permit and admissibility requirements
This employer-specific permit authorizes work only for the employer named on the permit. An eligible spouse or common-law partner might qualify for an open work permit restricted to the same community.
