For more information about these requirements, please see A Worker’s Guide to Labour Mobility. This document was developed to help workers know what a regulator can ask from labour mobility applicants.

Check labour mobility application requirements with the regulatory authority in the province or territory where you wish to work. Permissible requirements for the application process could include a regulator asking you to:

• complete an application,
• pay an application or processing fee,
• obtain insurance, malpractice coverage, or similar protection,
• post a bond,
• undergo a criminal background check,
• provide evidence of good character,
• prove that you understand the specific laws of the province or territory related to the practice of your occupation (e.g., jurisprudence exam),
• provide proof from the regulatory authority in each province or territory where you are currently certified confirming that your certification is in good standing, and
• provide proof of proficiency in English or French if you did not have to meet an equivalent proficiency requirement to be certified in your current province of territory.
