Work & Immigrate to Canada with LMIA

What is an LMIA?

A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that employers in Canada may need to get before hiring a foreign worker. An LMIA is a government-issued assessment of the labour market and whether there are any Canadians or permanent residents who are available and qualified to do the job.

The LMIA process is designed to protect the Canadian labour market and ensure that foreign workers are only hired when there is a genuine need.

Who needs an LMIA?

Most employers need an LMIA to hire a foreign worker. However, there are some jobs that are exempt from the LMIA requirement. These jobs are typically in high-demand sectors or where there is a shortage of qualified workers in Canada.

How to apply for an LMIA

Whether you are an employer seeking to obtain an LMIA or an employee looking to secure a work permit through this program, our dedicated team is available to provide comprehensive assistance. We offer application preparation and submission services, tailored to your specific needs.

For employers, we can facilitate the identification and selection of suitable candidates to fill job vacancies by aligning them with qualified individuals who meet all the requisite criteria.

For employees, we can guide you through the LMIA process and assist with all aspects of immigration-related procedures, ensuring a smooth and successful transition to your desired employment situation.

Types of LMIAs

There are two main types of LMIAs:

  • High-wage LMIAs: These LMIAs are issued for jobs that pay more than the median wage in Canada.
  • Low-wage LMIAs: These LMIAs are issued for jobs that pay less than the median wage in Canada.

In addition to the above, there are also a number of other types of LMIAs, including:

  • Agricultural LMIAs: These LMIAs are issued for jobs in the agricultural sector.
  • Seasonal LMIAs: These LMIAs are issued for jobs that are seasonal in nature.
  • Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) LMIAs: These LMIAs are issued for jobs that are part of a provincial or territorial PNP.

LMIA processing times

The LMIA processing time can vary depending on the type of LMIA being applied for and the workload of ESDC. However, ESDC aims to process all LMIA applications within 10 business days.

LMIA costs

There is a fee associated with applying for an LMIA. The fee is different for high-wage and low-wage LMIAs. Contact us for details.
