Permanent Residence

Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)

You may be a good candidate!

We can help you get the necessary permissions to hire the employee, as well as have them enter with a valid work permit!

Is this program for you?

Are you a Canadian employer looking to hire a worker to fill a position in your company?

Has it been difficult for you to fill the position with a Canadian Citizen/Permanent Resident? 

Do you either have a specific candidate in mind, or just want to fill the position with a qualified international candidate?

I am already in Canada, and there is no other way to extend my status as a worker, is an LMIA my only option?

Many temporary residents find themselves in situations where they don’t get permanent residence in Canada before the expiry of their status as a worker here. In many of these cases, the LMIA is your last option. Speak to us to see if you qualify for another LMIA exempt work permit, and if not, we can help you with the processing of your LMIA and work permit.

I am an employer and I have a worker who I would like to stay in Canada to continue working for me. If I sponsor them for an LMIA are they able to work for another company?

The short answer is no. An LMIA work permit is a closed work permit and the worker is bound to work for you for the duration of the work permit (normally 2-3 years). This being said, when/if the worker gets permanent residence in Canada and no longer requires the work permit, then there is no way to compel them to continue working for you.
