Performers at the Festival will be processed as visitors. If more than 15 performers, a manifest can be used. N.B. Exemption from an employment authorisation does not preclude the client from meeting other Immigration requirements. The Pan Am Games Society has invited volunteers of the St. John Ambulance Society to assist the local organization in providing medical first aid at the Pan American Games. Unfortunately we do not know the number of volunteers expected from these countries.
All volunteers are to pay their own way here and are responsible for their expenses.
Arrangements are made in co-ordination with the St John Ambulance National Headquarters in Ottawa. Because these persons are coming to work in a health-related field, they are subject to the medical examination requirements. The countries that are participating in the Games were invited to send artists to participate in that festival. Some Corporations that will provide electronic technology are not from the PASO countries but will be sending technicians. Some may need Employment Authorizations.
