About the wage
About the wage: ESDC weighs the offered wage against the median hourly wage for the occupation and region published on Canada's Job Bank, the official source; that comparison decides the high-wage or low-wage stream.
How we protect your information
Everything stays on this device and is never uploaded; the ZIP is built on your machine and downloads to you alone. Not affiliated with ESDC, IRCC, or the Government of Canada. An intake tool, not advice.
