Your Offer Check Result
The Job Offer Check runs your Canada offer through the points an official file follows: the employer, the job, the work permit route and the payment trail. Step 2 opens the full result with the official places to confirm each point. The answer comes from Canadian government sources, not from the person who sent the offer.
The check is built for applicants in Nigeria who received an offer by email, WhatsApp, Facebook message or through a recruiter. You bring the offer letter, the employer name and the job title. You leave with a clear list of what to confirm and where to confirm it, before any payment is made to anyone.
Employer and Job Confirmation
Job Bank is the Government of Canada's official job listing service. Step 2 shows how to match the employer name, business address, job title, wage and work location on your offer with what is published there. A genuine employer has a verifiable business presence, a working website and contact details that lead to a real person.
The check also covers the details inside the offer letter itself: the duties, the hours, the wage, the start date and the province of work. A complete offer states these clearly and matches the job description on the official posting. Step 2 gives you each of these points in order, so you can tick them off one by one.
Work Permit Process in Order
A genuine work permit process follows a fixed sequence. The employer makes the offer. In many cases the employer first obtains a Labour Market Impact Assessment, known as an LMIA, from Employment and Social Development Canada. Some jobs are LMIA-exempt and use a different employer route. The worker then applies to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, known as IRCC, for the work permit.
Step 2 lays out this sequence and shows the official government pages that describe each stage. You see which documents the employer provides, which documents you provide, and which fees go to the Government of Canada through its own online system.
What Your Step 2 Result Includes
- Employer check on the official Job Bank
- Job title, wage and location matched to your offer letter
- The LMIA or LMIA-exempt route explained in plain steps
- The IRCC work permit application stages in order
- Official government pages for every confirmation point
- Where to report fraud in Canada and in Nigeria
Red Flags Matched to Your Offer
Step 2 compares your offer with the signals that official sources link to job fraud. Each signal is shown next to the part of your offer it relates to, so the result is specific to your document and not a general list.
- A fee requested for a job guarantee or for an LMIA
- No interview, or an interview held only through chat
- Payment requested by gift card, crypto or a personal account
- An email address from a free provider instead of a company domain
- A work permit promised without an official application
- Pressure to send passport scans and bank details immediately
Sending passport copies and personal data to an unverified sender also opens the door to identity theft. The check shows which documents are normally shared, and at which stage of a genuine process they are requested.
Canada Immigration Lawyer and Consultant Support
Step 2 explains who is authorised to give immigration advice in Canada. A Canada immigration lawyer is a member of a provincial or territorial law society. A licensed immigration consultant in Canada is registered with the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants, and the register is public. You get the official places to look up either one by name.
This matters for canada work permit application help. A representative who is listed on the official register can be confirmed in minutes, and a representative who cannot be found is easy to identify. The same applies to an LMIA application lawyer: the employer usually deals with the LMIA, and the lawyer's name and licence can be checked in the law society directory.
The result also shows how to read a representation agreement, what a written fee schedule looks like and which fees belong to the government instead of to a representative. Whether you choose a Canada immigration lawyer or a licensed immigration consultant in Canada, you start with a name you have already confirmed.
Send Money to Canada from Nigeria Safely
Every genuine process has a clear payment trail. Step 2 shows the official way to pay government fees, and it covers the best way to pay visa fees online: through the secure IRCC online payment system, in your own name, with an official receipt. Fees are paid to the Government of Canada, not to a private account.
For living costs and settlement, the result covers how to send money to Canada from Nigeria through regulated providers. International money transfer to Canada is offered by banks and licensed transfer services. Each shows the exchange rate, the fee and the delivery time before you confirm, so every transfer is traceable.
The result also points to what newcomers need to open a Canadian bank account from Nigeria, including the identity documents banks ask for and the stage of your journey when an account is normally set up. A bank account in your own name is part of a genuine arrival plan.
Health Insurance for New Immigrants in Canada
Health coverage in Canada is organised by province, and rules on waiting periods differ from one province to another. Step 2 shows where to read the rules for your province of work. For health insurance for new immigrants in Canada, the result separates public provincial coverage from private plans that cover the gap at the start.
If your plan includes a gap before provincial coverage begins, international health insurance in Canada is the cover that fills it, and Canada travel insurance for work permit holders is often used for the first weeks. The result explains what each policy type covers, so you can read a policy document with confidence.
Family members who travel separately may need their own cover. Visitor to Canada insurance applies to people entering as visitors, and it differs from the plans used by workers. Step 2 lists the questions to ask a provider and the policy details to find in the document, such as coverage dates, limits and exclusions.
Where to Report Fraud
Your result closes with the official reporting channels. In Canada, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre receives reports of job and immigration scams. The result also lists where Nigerian residents can report fraud locally and how to keep messages, receipts and screenshots as a clear record for the report.
Cybersecurity basics are included as well: how to secure the email account used for your application, why a company domain matters and how to keep your documents in your own control. The result is a complete picture of your offer, ready at the next step.
