Retain Foreign Tech Workers Facing Visa Challenges

How does our TRIP service work?

Every year, tens of thousands of skilled tech workers are forced to leave the US annually due to visa constraints. The costs associated with replacing such talent and the direct negative effect on businesses and team morale drive home the urgency of a solution. Imagine a scenario where you can swiftly, legally, and cost-effectively relocate your invaluable top-tier talent to Canada while they continue to work remotely for your US company.

Enter the Global Talent Stream (GTS) immigration program—a game-changing solution. Through our Canadian Tech Talent Relocation Program (TRIP), we provide a lifeline for U.S. companies facing the risk of losing their tech talent due to visa restrictions. By leveraging the GTS, we facilitate the relocation of your skilled tech professionals remotely to Canada. This strategic move not only retains your talent but also offers a seamless solution for remote work that benefits the employer and the worker. Our approach aligns with the need to navigate complex immigration hurdles while ensuring business continuity and fortifying your workforce.

Why Investing in Your Current Tech Talent is Important

The cost to replace skilled tech talent is $50-$100K. You save money by using our TRIP service, retain your employee, and maintain productivity. It’s a win-win for all.
