No, you can apply for a Canada Work Visa without a job offer. In most cases, you cannot apply for a Canada Work Visa without a job offer, as employer-specific work permits require a Canadian employer to secure a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or submit an LMIA-exempt offer. However, there are limited exceptions under open work permits, which do not need a job offer. Examples include the Post-Graduation Work Permit for international students, Spousal Open Work Permits for partners of eligible workers or students, and Bridging Open Work Permits for applicants awaiting permanent residency. These provide flexibility but apply only to specific eligible groups.
