LMIA Applications & Employer Services in Canada
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is an important requirement for many Canadian employers seeking to hire foreign workers under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).
At KGH Immigration Ltd., our licensed Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) provides expert, affordable, and personalized assistance with LMIA applications, employer requirements, and related work permit applications.
Whether you are a Canadian employer looking to fill a labour shortage or a foreign worker exploring employment opportunities in Canada, we can help you understand your options and navigate the immigration process with confidence.
How This Process Works
Canadian employers may need to obtain a positive LMIA from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) before hiring a foreign worker.
Depending on the applicable LMIA stream, the process may include:
Assessing employer eligibility and business requirements.
Meeting recruitment and advertising requirements.
Preparing and submitting the LMIA application.
Supporting the foreign worker’s subsequent work permit application.
LMIA requirements vary depending on the occupation, wage, location, and applicable government policies.
