What is meant by "are you legible to be legally employed"?

Question

I'm in the Philippines now & applying for jobs online in Canada. That was a question in the online application.

Answer 1

I think you mean ELIGIBLE which means do you have permission to work said job. For example a work visa if your from another country. OR for example a pedophile can't work in a situation with kids or an abuser can't work in places where the ppl are vulnerable to abuse like daycares and nursing homes.

Answer 2

It probably means eligible.  Its asking if your an adult or have papers, where you can legally work.  I would check with the laws of the country and province you are moving into.

Answer 3

It means are you a citizen or have official and legal papers to be employed by anyone.  Very important since they are cracking down on companies that hire illegal aliens.

Answer 4

It means if you're not a Canadian citizen do you already have a work visa in place.

Answer 5

Are you a citizen?

Did a judge order you to not get a specific job?

Stuff like that, I would think.

Answer 6

I think you mean "eligible" and by that they're just asking: Are you a citizen, or immigrant with legal paperwork that "okay's" you to work here?
