Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) Services
Navigating the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) process in Canada can be complex and demanding, but at Time2Immigrate, we are here to support employers every step of the way. Our LMIA services are designed to help Canadian employers successfully hire foreign workers while ensuring compliance with all government regulations.
What is an LMIA?
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that Canadian employers must obtain to demonstrate that hiring a foreign worker will not negatively impact the Canadian labour market. A positive or neutral LMIA shows that there is a need for a foreign worker to fill a specific position because no qualified Canadian citizens or permanent residents are available for the job.
