What is Labour Market Impact Assessment?

A Labour Market Impact Assessment is an official permit or a document that empowers the Canadian employer to hire a skilled foreign worker legally into their company or business. A positive LMIA determines a strong need for a skilled foreign worker to fill the vacancy. Furthermore, it also denotes that no other Canadian worker or Canada PR Visa Holder is available or capable of doing that job. Therefore, Canadian Employers would need a positive LMIA to hire skilled workers overseas.

What is the process to get an LMIA?

Your employer must acquire a positive LMIA from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) to work in Canada. The LMIA application process differs from the type of program your employer is hiring for.

You must follow the below process to achieve a positive LMIA:

What are the minimum eligibility requirements?

• Submit a Transition plan for the same position and work location
• Must advertise the job vacancy on the Government of Canada Job Bank
•Also, conduct a minimum of two additional acceptable modes of recruitment with the occupation
•Wages must be similar to the Canadian workers or residents

Once the employer receives the LMIA, the skilled foreign worker can apply for a Canadian work permit and
eventual Canada Immigration. To apply for Work Permit, Workers need:

•A valid Canadian job offer

•An employment contract

•A copy of the LMIA

•And the LMIA number
