How much does it cost to participate in IEC and get the documents to travel and work in Canada?

International Experience Canada Participation Fee

You have to pay a fee to participate in International Experience Canada, which you must include in your application package. The fee amount can change depending on the currency exchange rate and is updated regularly. On the day you make your payment, you must ensure that your payment amount is the same as the participation fee shown on this website. No other amount will be accepted.

The current participation fee is:

Taiwan Funds - $4,500 NTD which equals C$150.

You must attach the participation fee in the amount of $4500 NTD in the form of a bank certified cheque. Cheque must be payable to "Canadian Trade Office in Taipei" or "加拿大駐台北貿易辦事處". Please do NOT stamp "Non-negotiable" on the cheque. DO NOT send a personal cheque. Please note that you do NOT need to pay a separate fee to obtain a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or Work Permit when applying to IEC. No other forms of payment will be accepted. Personal cheques will not be accepted. If you provide a personal cheque, your application will be rejected and the cheque destroyed.

The applicant is responsible for all bank charges occurring in Taiwan. Any insufficient payment or overpayment received at the Canadian Trade Office in Taipei will automatically cause your application to be returned.

Refund Policy

The program participation fee will be refunded if:

  • your application is not accepted because it was not completed or was not completed correctly;
  • you do not meet the eligibility criteria for participating in International Experience Canada;
  • your application for a work permit is refused by Citizenship and Immigration Canada;
  • the category you applied for is full and International Experience Canada cannot take any more participants this year; or
  • you voluntarily withdraw your application before Citizenship and Immigration Canada issues your Letter of Introduction.

Please note: For your protection the CTOT will not chop your bank certified cheque if it is returned to you. You will be able to return your cheque for a to the same branch of the bank at which it was originally purchased, and do not require a chop from our office to do so.

Your participation fee will not be refunded if:

  • The Letter of Introduction has been issued: Once your application has been approved and the Letter of Introduction sent, you will be assigned one of the spaces available under International Experience Canada. Your participation fee will not be refunded from that point on, even if you decide not to come to Canada.
  • You have misrepresented facts on your application: If your application contains false information, it will automatically be refused and your participation fee will not be refunded.

WARNING: Misrepresentation
All applicants are legally required to be truthful and disclose all relevant information with their applications. Applicants who submit an application package that contains misrepresented information, knowingly or unknowingly, will be denied entry to Canada and may also be banned from travelling to Canada. The details of the misrepresentation will remain permanently on record with Citizenship and Immigration Canada and the Canada Border Services Agency.
