bonjour tout le monde !!!
voila je voulais savoir de source sur si il est possible de faire les demandes de permis de travail (PTT) pour le quebec en etant sur place en statut de touriste et de savoir la difference entre ceux qui parle de visa de travail et le PTT??
Pas de PVT pour moi , je suis plus dans la tranche d'age ! : (: (
merci bcp de toutes les reponses que vous pouvez m'apporter !!!!!!!
Un permis de travail, c'est une autorisation de travailler au Canada. C'est l'agent d'immigration qui le remet. Un visa, c'est le simple autocollant qu'appose l'ambassade dans le passeport pour permettre à un étranger de prendre un vol vers le Canada (la majorité des étrangers doivent avoir un visa pour monter à bord, ce n'est cependant pas le cas des Français qui eux en sont dispensés).
Pour obtenir un permis de travail, il faut en faire la demande à l'ambassade et bien sûr avoir une offre d'emploi d'un employeur au Canada.
pas de probleme NIKKY pour la procedure de demande du permis de travail !! je suis revenu en France apres avoir vu mon peut etre futur employeur !!!
en fait mon interogation est :
- dois'je etre obligatoirement en France pour attendre la reponse pour le permis de travail ou est'ce que je peux avoir l'option d'etre deja sur place ( montreal ) pendant que la procedure continue???
car le soucie est que ma copine habite Montreal et que de toute facon j'avais decidé de repartir pour debut septembre( avec ou non permis de travail!! )
autre question , comment faire si je pars en statut de touriste pou rester 6 mois sur le territoire !!!
merci pour toutes les reponses que vous pouvez me faire ;)
desole d'avoir ete absent sur lesite mais demenagement oblige , je voulais savoir si des personnes avais des reponses a mes interrogations et quelle sont les meilleurs options pour moi !!
c'etait pour savoir, j'ai un employeur qui veux m'embauché mais comme il m'a annoncé qu'il ne pourrait pas me donné du travail toute l'annee, est il possible, avec son accord, d'aller travailler dans d'autres entreprises avec le meme permis de travail...
merci
En faites je compte partir comme touriste avec une autorisation de 6MOIS et une fois arriver chercher un boulot et demander mon visa de travail, car je pense qu il sera plus facile de trouver un travail sur place que depuis la belgique et pour obtenir un visa de travail depuis la belgique il faut deja avoir trouver un emploi d ou mon probleme.
Ici, je suis parvenue a trouver un employeur car il voulait me voir et ils sont pret a m'engager. Mais que faire sur place pour changer sa situation de touriste?????
Que faire car les sites internet du gouvernement me dise tous de rentrer en belgique mais comme je suis ici, je me demande si je ne peux pas lancer la procédure et ensuite faire le tour du poteau ou autres solutions les bienvenues.
Je vois que le numero il y a un drapeau américain, vais je devoir parler anglais ou bien le francais suffira? J'ai tellement peur d'appeler et de me faire refouler, ... et de ne pas avoir réponses a mes questions :s ...
Je ne vois pas de quel drapeau tu parles mais c'est le numéro des services de l'immigration canadienne et les services sont offerts dans les 2 langues...

hello tout le monde et avant tout je vous souhaite un joyeux noel !!!!!! je suis au quebec depuis fin juillet et ma demande de permis a ete faite co-jointement par mon employeur et moi meme , j'ai attendu jusqu'au vendredi 16 decembre une reponse et quand j'ai appele mon futur boss , il me dit qu'il a recu un courrier du federal et du provincial lui annoncant que mon PTT etait refuse parce que le salaire qu'il me propose n'est pas assez important pour que des personnes du canada et /ou quebec ce presente pour ce post , je ne comprend pas trop pourquoi attendre 4 mois alors qu'ils aurai pu le faire pendant la periode de publication dans le journal officiel qui est d'une duree de 5 semaines !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
maintenant mon dossier est tjs ouvert jusqu'a mi fevrier mais mon visa tourist ce termine le 26 janvier !!!!!!! comment je peux faire pour renouveller mon visa sans trop de risque de me le voir refuser ?????????????? en sachant qu'ici je suis avec ma blonde qui habite ici et qui est residente permanente !!!!!!!!!!! toute les infos sont bonnes , merci a vous tous !!!!
oui mais le soucie est que je dois payer 175 dollars canadiens mais mes finances actuelles ne me le permet plus !! :( c'est la mouise !!! et si je pars cote US tu pense que ca peux bloquer pour le retour ?????
merci Nikky pour toute tes reponses precises :) !!!!
A ton avis quel est le meilleur moyen pour ma situation en sachant que mon dossier de demande de PTT est encore en situation d'evaluation !!!!!!!
Ton statut est encore valide jusqu'au 26 janvier. Si tu fais immédiatement une nouvelle demande de PTT tu as un statut implicite jusqu'à la décision finale.

mais comment je peux faire une nouvelle demande alors que le dossier de ma premiere demande est en suspend et mon dossier est encore ouvert jusqu'a la decision final par rapport aux pieces complementaire que mon peut etre futur employeur dois fournir !!!! la cloture final de mon dossier si ils n'acceptent pas avant de me donner le PTT est prevu pour le 15 fevrier !!!!!!
ca veux dire que entre le 26 janvier et le 15 fevrier (sauf changement) mon statut sera automatiquement implicite ???????
bonjour les meandres de la bureaucratie !!!!!!!!!! :s
Petite question où l'on pourra me répondre... Je suis touriste et cela fait 5mois que je suis ici, je vais bientot répartir avant que mon visa touriste n'expire mais combien de temps après être rentrée je pourrais revenir ici? Est ce qu'il y a une certaine période à attendre dans mon pays avant de revenir ici pour à nouveau profiter des 6mois de touristes?
Petite question : Ou pourrais aller pour trouver un vol aller simple pour rentrer chez moi dans des prix abordables... Ou meme des sites internet car je ne trouve que des vols a 1350... ??? merci

After living for many years in the West (Belgium, Italy, Switzerland),
I’ve decided to return and settle in Cameroon, my home country.
Currently an entrepreneur in real estate and transport, I’m looking for a partner / partners / foundation to collaborate on an agriculture project, as I own 10 hectares of land.
The hectares have remained unused for years due to a lack of financial means, since the project requires what I’d call a considerable investment. As the main stakeholder, I have a minimal contribution to offer.
I believe it’s time to bring this space to life to meet pressing needs and serve the common good of society.
The project is simple:
1) Grow maize + build a processing plant to produce flour
2) Open a mini supermarket + a modern bakery using the flour for pastries, etc.
3) Build a healthcare service
4) Build a nursery and primary school
5) Construct free housing for retired expatriates in exchange for their voluntary contributions in their respective fields.
This is a project I truly believe in, and I invite anyone interested to add their personal touch—whether through advice, guidance, or involvement.
Note: This project has national and international potential in terms of employment.
Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...
What price should I expect to pay for a modest small apartment or a large room in a bedroom community in Quito? Are restaurants and food expensive? And which airline is best to travel from Montreal? Thanks for your answers
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has already had the experience of working abroad?
I don’t have a specific country in mind yet, so I’m open to hearing about your experiences on this topic—the pros and cons, etc.
Hi there!
I’m a young Malian looking to work in Morocco. Besides a passport, what other documents are required at the **Moroccan** border?
Thanks for your help!
Hi there. I’m planning to move to Luxembourg around December 2025 or January 2026. I’ll be looking for a job and settling in. My question is: is it too complicated to find housing? Is the job market more advantageous and easier than in France? I’m open to any information that could help me.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D
I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...).
Thanks again!
Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies.
PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant.
In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there?
Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on!
Thanks for your feedback!!
Hi there,
I’ve been living in Bali for a month now, but unfortunately on a VOA visa. I’m looking for a European company that’s set up in Indonesia. I’m in electrotechnical maintenance—air conditioning, cold rooms, 220V/380V electricity. I’ve been a tradesperson for 3 months and can bring my full professional toolkit. If anyone’s interested, let me know!
You can send me a message.
Best regards,
I’d love to go to Japan to travel, and if things go well, work there too.
Has anyone tried finding a job there? Is it even possible without speaking Japanese?
I’m thinking of starting out in restaurants (dishwashing or serving) and then moving into my field, IT.
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga.
To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that...
I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
I'm looking for an au pair who'd like to come to Bournemouth in the south of England, and I'd love to know what the best websites are to find one, please.
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background:
• I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*.
• I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor.
• Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience:
• I work as an *Employment Counselor*.
• I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0.
• I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles?
We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!!
Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin.
I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well:
I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers?
First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand?
Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]
Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol
Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
