Subject: Working with a student visa!!! Need advice.
  I applied as a skilled worker and am schedules for interview in 2 months. My case is that I reside in Ukraine under a student visa for 10yrs. I graduate and started working in a firm. I have been working with the firm for 5 years and studying (for second diploma) evening classes. The firm gave me and will still give (if needed) all the necessary papers/recommendations. Will the embassy consider my working in Ukraine illegal/invalid because of the student visa or that should not be of their concern since the company is ready to support me. After all it is not in Canada I work with a student visa? Help consult....

That should be fine. Are you working legally in Ukraine? If you are, then it should not be a problem. Remember that CIC may ask yuu for tax return sheets and paystubs from your company, which you should have if you worked there legally.

I do not understand why people give advice and sign their post Anonymous.

I lived in Ukraine, Kyiv/Obolon for six years. The Visa Post in Kyiv will go over your reference letters with a fine tooth comb. I suggest you start attending Pub Night at the Embassy as often as you can, its held on Thursday evenings or it used to be.. Talk to everyone get seen make contacts.

Working without authorization in one country does not make you illegal in Canada and if you are in Ukraine you know for the right amount with the right connections you can get any approval you need. NOT RECOMMENDING YOU DO THAT!

I made an awful lot of money and was very high profile in Kyiv and not even the TAX police asked me for anything.

Let me know what city your in and I´ll see if someone can assist you with the proper solution.

Are you working legally in Ukraine?

students are not suppose to work because of their student visa. My company knew but were ready to take me and they did. Under contract. I gave the copy to the embassy and a recommendation letter from the company. I can and will bring the originals to my interview. The bottom line is My company BACKS ME FULLY.
But will that be enough for the canadian embassy???
I am a little bit tensed and worried about that. Would that be of their concern or all they need is my comfirmation from the company, not my visa type?

by the way, among the documents they request to bring along, there isn´t any mention of work permit.
They request only passport, birth cert, marriage cert. and diplomas.
