What is an LMIA?
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is an essential document required for Canadian employers who wish to hire a foreign worker. It assesses the impact of hiring a foreign national on the Canadian labor market, ensuring that no qualified Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fill the position.
Why is LMIA Important?
- Employer Compliance: An LMIA demonstrates that your business is compliant with Canadian immigration and labor laws.
- Job Market Protection: It ensures that hiring foreign workers does not negatively affect the job opportunities for Canadian residents.
- Work Permit Eligibility: A positive LMIA is required for most foreign nationals to obtain a work permit in Canada.
