Why is an LMIA work permit required?
The Canadian government requires LMIA work permits to ensure that foreign workers are only hired when there is a need for their skills and that they are not displacing Canadian workers.

- Workers who are exempt under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA).
- Workers who are participating in a recognized internship or training program.
- Workers who are coming to Canada under a cultural exchange program.
