We provide comprehensive support to both employers and foreign workers, ensuring full compliance with Canadian immigration and employment regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
An LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) is a document that an employer in Canada may need to obtain before hiring a foreign worker. It proves that no Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fill the job.
Most foreign workers require a positive LMIA to apply for a work permit, unless their job falls under an LMIA-exempt category.
Processing times vary depending on the stream and job category, typically ranging from a few weeks to a few months.
Employers must advertise the job, offer fair wages, meet employment standards, and provide detailed documentation supporting the need to hire a foreign worker.
