Have you ever thought to work and travel to Canada? The Canadian working holiday visa allows you to do exactly that for up to two years. The IEC working holiday visa is a great opportunity to dive deep into the Canadian culture and start an adventure in a whole new environment.
The IEC visa will allow you to live and work anywhere in Canada. More then a dozen cities in Canada have a population of a quarter of a million or more, providing endless opportunities for international workers. If you prefer the more quieter and simple easy going life then there is also plenty of opportunities in the rural areas of Canada too.
The visa works on a quota system, which means there are a limited amount of visas available for British nationals. Make sure you apply as soon as possible in order for you to secure your visa! It takes about 3-6 months to process the visa and once the visa has been issued, you can enter Canada anytime up to a year from then, and the two years visa will only start counting from the time you enter Canada.
Once the visa has been processed we will also help you with finding your desired job and also booking you your accommodation.
No dependents are allowed on IEC working Holiday Visa. However, if you have a partner or a spouse who do qualify for the visa, they can apply for one as well.
If you would like to ask any more questions then feel free to get in contact with us and let’s get you to Canada!
In order to obtain IEC Working Holiday Visa, you need to adhere to the following requirements:
- Be a citizen of and hold a passport for an eligible country
- Be between the age of 18-35. (Varies depending on nationality)
- Have no criminal records and serious medical conditions
- Possess a valid private health insurance and have enough funds for the intended stay
You can do any type of work you desire when you are on an IEC Working Holiday Visa. However you may need to undertake a medical exam to get a work permit in particular industries. This will be required if you wish to work in a job where it is important to protect public health such as health services, child care, agricultural work an primary or secondary education.
There are a number of different job opportunities scattered throughout the cities and the rural areas too. The type of job that you take on whilst you are living and working in Canada will depend on yourself, you may take on any job that you desire or have experience in.
Basing yourself in the city will allow you to work in standard working roles in restaurants, cafes’, bars and shops. Although these jobs do require some experience it’s not necessary that you need extensive experience and sometimes you may be able to get away with learning ‘on the job’.
Working in the city is a great way to meet people and socialize however if you are the type that enjoys peace and quiet you may want to try something different. Why not head out to the more rural areas where you’ll feel relaxed and be amongst a close knit regional community. Organic farms need fruit pickers and with Canada being the fifth largest agricultural exporter in the world there’s plenty of jobs that need to be filled in to keep up with the $106 billion the sector contributes to the Canadian economy
The possibilities are endless! Complete our assignment and we will contact you with more details.
IEC Working Holiday visa is valid for 1-2 years. The validity depends on the nationality you hold. Pick your country below to find our the visa validity.

Alliance Work & Travel is a very informative website. I found answers to all the questions and concerns I’ve had. The application process was simple and easy, too. The company provides instructions on every stage through either email or phone.
It took a few months of wait until I got my visa, but it was stress-free and definitely worth it.

had a great experience with Alliance Work & Travel. Spoke to a man named Sean and he was able to answer all of my questions and talked me through the entire application process. I got my letter of invitation less than a month after being out in the pool and I am now exploring Canada. Thank you, guys!
