Getting a work permit in Switzerland

Immigrants who hail from countries such as India which are not part of the European Union are required to hold a work permit if they wish to work in the nation. The rules are tighter for obtaining such a permit when compared to EU citizens but can be worth it when you consider the earnings and quality of life. In order to get a work permit, the immigrant needs to get employment with an employer who is willing to sponsor their visa application. The employers are also stipulated to prove that he has not obtained any local citizen for the vacant position to be filled. The employer has to advertise in prescribed papers for a predefined period to ensure that he has exhausted all possibilities of hiring a citizen or permanent resident before providing employment to a foreign worker. Some of the occupations which have the highest probability of getting a permit are managers and highly qualified individuals having master's degrees and professional certification along with many years of experience. The time taken for processing an application can range from 2 weeks to several months depending on the individual case.

Types of permits issued in Swiss

The following types of permits are issued for immigrants to Switzerland depending on each individual case. L - Permit or Short-term residence permit This permit is generally granted to people who immigrate to Switzerland to work for a short-term contract that lasts for a year or less. This type of visa is tied up with the duration of the employment contract and it is possible to extend it for up to two years. Another reason for being awarded a short-term L-Residence permit is that it provides an opportunity for someone who wants to immigrate to Switzerland for taking up an educational program. B- Permit or initial residence This type of residence permit is subject to quotas and cannot exceed a period of one year. An immigrant can however apply to have the permit extended from year to year as long as there are no grounds for rejecting such a request. The number of visas issued under this permit is highly limited and one has to make sure that one meets all criteria before applying for the B-Permit Visa. C-Permit or Permanent residence If an immigrant has stayed in Switzerland for ten years continuously then, the candidate can apply for a C permit which allows them to stay permanently in Switzerland as well as switch employers freely. The immigrant can also move freely between cantons (Areas in Switzerland).

Germany: The Deutschland is famous for precision, quality, and high expectations. Unsurprisingly, it makes the list but we’re still going to spell it out. Currently, home to over 170,000 Indians, Germany is a melting pot of different cultures mostly from other countries in the EU. A veritable hub for mechanical engineering, Germany has a low level of corruption, and a love for innovation and is home to over 25 Fortune 500 companies.

Provincial Nominee Program is one of the best routes for Canadian immigration. Every province (state) in Canada has its criteria for immigration. This criterion is custom-fitted to reflect the needs and growth opportunities arising in that respective province.

A Master’s Degree translates directly into a better CRS score. Your educational qualifications reflect the contribution you would make to the destination country’s economy which means that you would be more sought after. Speaking one of the country's primary languages (Eg: French for Canada) also greatly raises your chances for both visa success as well job opportunities.
