Significant Benefit to Canada (C10)

The Significant Benefit to Canada (C10) category allows foreign nationals to obtain a temporary work permit when their presence in Canada can clearly offer notable economic, cultural, or social advantages to the country. The focus is on real, measurable value rather than routine labour needs.

Eligibility

Significant Benefit to Canada (C10)

As an applicant you need to clearly explain how your work or business activities will positively contribute to Canada’s economy, society, or cultural landscape. This also includes displaying genuine preparation in Canada, i.e. business ties, accommodation plans, or a defined site or location of operations for self-employed individuals.

A valid employment offer from a Canadian employer is usually required, except in cases relating to entrepreneurs or eligible self-employed professionals.
You need to show acceptable language ability, relevant educational background, and proven work experience.
Supporting evidence/documents, i.e. noteworthy achievements, awards, patents, publications, or a well-structured and proper business plan plays a key role in strengthening the application.

Significant Benefit to CanadaC 10

The C10 category is commonly used by professionals whose expertise or business activity does not fit standard LMIA pathways but still offers meaningful value to Canada.

C 10 Work Permit

The C10 work permit is employer-specific, meaning the individual is authorized to work only for the named employer listed on the permit. In most cases, applicants must first secure a Canadian job offer.However, entrepreneurs and individuals qualifying under IRCC’s self-employed criteria—particularly in cultural, artistic, or athletic fields—may be exempt from the job offer requirement if they meet the significant benefit threshold.

Use cases

This category is mainly intended for temporary entry rather than direct permanent residence. Many professionals use the C10 work permit to gain Canadian work experience, which can later support a permanent residence application through pathways such as Express Entry under the Canadian Experience Class, where applicable.
